Today is our 4th anniversary. We were going to have a nice romantic picnic in a park, but a bad thunderstorm shattered that plan. So we just had a nice romantic picnic in our dining room. We had KFC. (Try not to be jealous.) There is a KFC/A&W not far from our house, so I picked up dinner there. A&W has this new fruit smoothie, so I got 2 of those also (1 banana/berry, and 1 strawberry). They are really good.
Jeff got me the movie Emma (Jane Austen). It is the one done by A&E with Kate Beckinsale. I like it better than the one with Gwyneth Paltrow.
I got for Jeff a micro SD card to expand the memory in his MP3 player.
So I had a couple of piano students over today, and while I was teaching one little boy, his mom and sister did Rachel’s hair in ponytails. While I readily admit that she is cuter than anything, I can’t do her hair like that. When I try it she is moving her head from side to side, trying to look behind her (at me), and as incompetent as I am in the doing of hair, I can’t function with the additional handicap of a wiggly, squirmy client. I may have to get professional help.Here are some more cute pictures I took of Rachel over the past few days.
“I’m going in. If I’m not back in 10 minutes, call the police.”
Happy Anniversary! I think a KFC picnic sounds just perfect.
Rachels hair is cute in a ponytail.
I am also a Jane Austen fan. We lived in London, two summers ago, and I was able to see so many things with relevance to Jane. It was amazing!
Happy Anniversary! Why didn’t I remember that you blatantly copied me by 1) Marrying someone younger than you and 2) Choosing the same day in June. At least you didn’t name Rachel after me too!
I love how cute Rachael is. Like she smile so good in every picture! I love the pigtails one…cutie! That stinks that it stormed on your anniversary..but I’m sure it was just as great inside…haha. Happy Anniversary!
Wow! 4 years! You have been thru a lot in these short 4 years! Rachel pony tails look cute! glad you got a picture, it wont happen again for a long while! hee hee We love you guys and yes, there is a little jealousy goin on with the A&W!
Hey Noelle,
It was fun to get caught up on your life via blogging. I love it.
Rachel is beautiful. I can’t believe she’s already nine months old. What really shocked me is that you have been married for 4 years. It seems like yesterday I was in your living room visiting you when we got the happy wedding news. How fast time passes. So glad you guys are doing well.
I have loved getting to know Tricia here in Lexington. She was my VT for the first year I was here and she’s been the boys soccer coach for 3 seasons. She’s great.
We also enjoyed our brief overlap with Paul and Andrea here too. Now they live just 3 minutes from my old house. What a small world we live in!!
wow four years already? amazing! hmmm that picnic is enviable. kfc. delicious. it’s a shame that the weather sucked so bad =p
I remember going to your reception and I was extremely pregnant with Gage and your father in law kept asking me when I was going to pop. Ahhhh…the memories. Of course, I am sure your memories of your wedding and reception are much sweeter. Congrats on four!
Regarding popcicles, I think we got them at Target last year near the ice shavers. I am still trying new recipes and I think a good smoothie popcicle is next and I will let you know how that turns out.
