14 Years and Counting
Terra and I were married 14 years ago today. We were married on a cruise ship in Florida just before departing the port in Miami heading to Nassau on a 4 day trip. We had about 20 of our friends and family along for the trip. Being it was October the seas were kind of rough. If I remember correctly more people were sick than not. Terra and I were not one of them. It is hard to believe that 14 years have passed but it has. Thinking ahead to the next 14 years all of our kids will most likely be out of the house. That is strange to think about. I am not sure where this photo was taken or when...

Last weekend I picked the last of the three pumpkins we grew this year. Pretty happy with the pumpkins being it was our first garden. This one was the biggest of the three. It never got full orange as it has a little green on it. I thought I would pick it before the frost made it go bad.

The pumpkins in our garden are about ready to be picked. Two of the four are ready anyway. One is still green but turning more orange every day. Another one went rotten on us. But two of the pumpkins that we picked today are in fine shape. Even despite me breaking off the stem on one of them. I handed Terra the Flip on Saturday and let her do some filming for a change. In this video I picked two of the three good pumpkins. One pumpkin is a little off center and doesn’t sit very well. The other is perfect. The third one is by far the biggest pumpkin we have. Looking forward to...
