Today we took my parents to breakfast at the IHop in LHC. It is their 57th wedding anniversary. Of course, I thought it would be nice to take my parents to a very nice place for dinner, but, the Dallas Cowboys are playing late afternoon and according to my husband all restaurants should be closed so we can all enjoy the "Boys".

It is a Chamber of Commerce day in LHC; 68 and sunny, so guess I will read a book in the sunshine.

We are still enjoying our time away from work, but I do miss the "chats" with my girlfriends and will enjoy seeing them again.

Today, just a normal day in LHC, AZ. Sunshine, 60's and football. Craig is preoccupied with the playoff season. I have known this from the start of our relationship. He loves his football and I know my place during this season. It could be worse, it could be lots of hunting, fishing, gambling, etc., but it is only football and for that I am grateful! But, he is truly a wonderful man, as he took me to Las Vegas earlier this week to see my beloved Beatles in the "Love" circue du soleil. It was amazing and we both enjoyed it immensely.

Tomorrow, daughter Jacquie is running in the Rock n' Roll marathon in Phoenix, wish her luck! It is also my parents 57th wedding anniversary. Wow! Isn't it amazing that true love really does prevail, unfortunately many of us will never see that many years with our loved one, but we will cherish the years that we do have together! I am very proud of my parents and know there have been good times and bad times but they have stayed true to their love and commitment. We can all learn something from them.
