• 730!

  Yesterday marked 730 days of marriage for us.  That’s 730 wonderful days of ongoing deep and profound intellectual, spiritual and physical conversation with my best friend. 

  Sam took the day off from work, and our dear friends Haily, Cathy and Vince came over to watch our baby for us while we went out. 

  Sam drove us to Old Town…where we quickly got into the historical mode by taking a ride on a wagon.
  

  Then I lectured in the old school house about the ABCs.
  

  Sam was a star pupil.
  

  Then he surprised me by taking me to the Burton House for high tea!  Here are some of the desserts we had.

  He really got into character.
  

  I tried my best.
  

  These “dummy” ladies really scared me — so I decided to sit down and have a conversation with them.  (I thought they were gonna come to life and start talking to me for reals any second!)
  

  After we finished our tea, we lingered on a bench for a long time — just enjoying another beautiful day in SD.
  

  It was a nice way to spend our anniversary together.

  Last note:  I found this website (from one of my readers) which lets you upload your photo into a magazine cover.  Look, we made it on Life magazine! haha.

  
  The “Secret” is Jesus!
