Goodnight house goodnight mouse

It's really only appropriate that I'm here alone in my house for the very last night I own her. It's a bitter sweet goodbye- it's been a long road with buyers not showing, buyers backing out, mortgage companies taking their time, lenders taking their time. But it is official at 9 AM tomorrow morning I sign the papers over to the new owners. It's strange to me a person can cry so much over something as silly as a house, but it is the beginning of so many thing, the end of many others and so with that I say from the book Good Night Moon:
Goodnight room
goodnight moon
goodnight cow jumping over the moon
goodnight light and the red balloon
goodnight bears goodnight chairs
goodnight kittens goodnight mittens
goodnight clocks and goodnight socks
goodnight little house and goodnight mouse
goodnight comb and goodnight brush
goodnight nobody goodnight mush
and goodnight to the old lady whispering "hush"
goodnight stars, goodnight air
goodnight noises everywhere.

Happy Anniversary Babe

So I'm only 8 days late in posting this... but I found this and yes it's one of our "songs" and yes it's a bit "cheesy"



I love you so much babe! We've been down some definite broken roads these past 3 years but they always bring me closer to you. I think that the lyrics to this and to Keeper of the Stars by Tracy Byrd says it best...

It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew
Now I just can't believe you're in my life
Heaven's smilin' down on me
As I look at you tonight

I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin'
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I've got all I'll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars

Soft moonlight on your face oh how you shine
It takes my breath away
Just to look into your eyes
I know I don't deserve a treasure like you
There really are no words
To show my gratitude

So I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin'
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I've got all I'll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars

It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew

Willow Flat tradition...





Before we left ID we did our annual stick your feet in the water... yes it was freezing, no I barely kept my feet in for 10 secs... Out of Dave, Brian, Riley, and I Riley was the BIG winner! Brian and Dave made us a fire, Ty slept through most of it, we had some yummy hot dogs and oranges and of course soda. I love Willow Flats!
