Year Six - Iron

Our little T joined our family as we began our sixth year of marriage. She joined me for a trip to Florida for my cousin's wedding while Daddy stayed home for a long weekend with K (age 2 at the time).

K (age 2) went to Hershey Park with my brother's family, my parents and I in the spring. We had a blast. Then Eric and I took her to Sesame Place early that summer. She loved the amusement parks.

To celebrate our anniversary, we attended the local dinner theater for a performance of Beauty and the Beast. It was absolutely wonderful! It appears that we did this on our actual anniversary weekend and had the night to ourselves at home.

Year six is the iron year. Eric and I bought a large rod iron wall clock that is still in a box in the garage. Eric didn't like it. I did! It has never found the right home on a wall and I hope it does in this house!

He bought me a little iron and glass candle/flower holder and promised to keep it full of flowers. Of course it is now in the garage in a box. Clearly we haven't unpacked much of our decorative items. Maybe this summer we'll get to it.

I bought him a book on the history of bridges. The title of chapter two was, "The Iron Revolution". (hence the connection) It's a nice coffee table book about bridges around the world. It's a history thing, so it's not my kind of book but it did make me think of him. We've both enjoyed looking at it a few times. But in all honesty, it has found a home in the basement on a shelf for now. (We don't have a coffee table...)
