My question...

What is your favorite way to start the day?

My answer is:

Call it corney, but my favorite way to start the day is waking up next to my husband of 34 years!!  What else could be a great start to the day???
We are early risers even on the weekends...
I love starting our days (ususally weekends) with a cup of coffee on our patio.  We have recently overhauled the backyard which makes this time even more special.  The hummingbirds frequent the feeders in the early mornings which I enjoy so much. 
The quiet of the mornings are so calming to me and we speak softly to keep our conversations between us - so special!

What's your answer??

My question...

Describe the longest road trip you've ever taken!

My answer is:

Although I have been on longer road trips than this particular 8 hours to Los Angeles,

 THE.LONGEST road trip I took was following a call

we received from a teammate of our son telling us

he had been hit in the face by a ball from a pitching machine!

Dear hubs and I set out around midnight and drove straight through

to Southern California with barely any words spoken. 

We were both so focused on getting to our son's side and making sure that he was alright.

He did receive a broken nose and small fractures around his eye & cheek,

but all has since healed well...

What experience did you miss out on

and wish you'd been a part of?

My "experience" would be that I am missing out on

growing old along with my Mom.

I miss her every.single.day and want SO much

to share my experiences of being a Mom with her.

I want to show her how much I enjoy

cooking and baking and share my dishes with her.

I carry on each day in the hopes that she is

indeed watching over me, proud of the woman

and Mom that I have become.

What's the best part about a wedding?:

Whether you're an attendee or participant,

there's lots to love about a wedding.

Explain your favorite part...

My favorite part is the entrance of the bride!!

I love to see the faces of the bride and groom

as they see each other.

The emotion that is expressed at just that moment

is simply priceless..

Name a place you'd want to show your child for the first time.
What's there that would be fun to introduce to new eyes?

I.LOVE.HAWAII ~ I know, you are shocked, right??? Hehehe... Obviously, Hawaii is what I wanted to share with my kids!! Some had been before, but not to Maui. I wanted to show them the lush gardens, the blue water and the unparralled sunsets! Mostly I wanted to spend time with my kids in paradise... We did all of this and more; it was a vacation to remember ♥

"Goodbye or See You Later"
We recently attended a funeral service for a fellow Firefighter...

It was during the service that one of the speakers told the story

of how the firefighter and his wife would say
"See You Later" instead of "Bye" when leaving each other
in the morning and when ending telephone conversations.
It was such an endearing story,

how they wanted to leave each other
with the thought that they were not saying "goodbye",
but that they would see each other later...

The Fireguy and I really liked the idea and we discussed it

at great length.
A couple of days later, we began using the story in

our personal lives.
It was very easy to do when we each went our ways each day,
however it has been such a struggle to NOT say 'goodbye or bye'
when we end telephone conversations.
We would occasionally slip and say goodbye and then need to
go back and say, okay see you later and hang up.
For us, it didn't come natural for us to not say goodbye.

We quickly came to the realization that that was their story

and not ours.
It indeed was an endearing story and we loved to hear about it.
We went back to our story, our comfort level of communication ~

So, my question to you is...

What do you say, "See You Later" or "Good Bye"???

I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

My question is: WHAT FOOD TASTES BETTER AS LEFTOVERS???
My response: Hands down, PIZZA!! To me there is just something about cold pizza that is so satisfying! I have been known to hide a few pieces to ensure I have leftovers the next morning ~
