Update!

Sorry to all for not posting in a while. I was on vacation in Ocean City, and upon return had viewings and a funeral for my Grandma, and then on Thursday we had a wedding to attend. It's been a tiring and tough two weeks, but I'm back into action!

Happy 2 Year Anniversay to Us!!!!

June 16th was our two year wedding anniversary! We celebrated by going to dinner at Dobbin House in Gettysburg. DELICIOUS! Dobbin has a LOT of memories for us, that's why we go there every year: it's where we went on our first real date, it's where our wedding reception was, and it's where we have been celebrating various occassions for the pasts 6 years... Aren't we super cute?! :-)

Lettuce from our Garden!!!

Just wanted to show you a picture of the lettuce from our garden, this is about the 5th clipping and still going strong!
