Fact of the Week

Fact of the Week: How long do astronauts stay in quarantine? Apollo 11, 12, and 14 Astronauts from these missions were quarantined for 21 days after returning from the moon, beginning when the lunar lander's hatch closed on July 21, 1969. The quarantine was a precaution in case the astronauts had been exposed to dangerous lunar microorganisms.

Anniversary number FIFTEEN!!

Wow, how time flies!  I can't believe Terry and I have been together for 15 (well, really 16) years!  In a way it feels like it has been forever, but in ways it feels like only yesterday.  Terry bought me these gorgeous flowers
AND left me this cute note.......
It was a most tasty dinner :)
This is what they looked like later in the week. So cool, I have never seen anything like them. 
I gave Terry a present too, but we won't go into what that was here.....
Happy Anniversary, Babe!!!

4th of July - 2013

Post from the past!  Here are a few snipets from our 4th of July. I had surgery the day before so I didn't get many pics. The kids LOVE their smoke bombs....

Terry and Topher light a paratrooper....
Caught it!
Getting more fireworks. I have to sneak to take his photo.....
But Topher hams it up!
Great fun. I had to have surgery so I spent the holiday on a nice comfy chair and watched the festivities!
