Happy Birthday to Ken!

Homemade cupcakes, a surprise on Tuesday night after Ken's class. The next day he took them to school to share. I have a few more pictures or I might have a few more, if there's film in the other camera, or they might just be in my mind's eye.

A New Addition to our Family

Five years ago Ken and I made a big mistake. Without any research, or asking around, we purchased a mattress. Not just any mattress, the cheapest mattress we could find.

The first year it wasn't good, but it wasn't so bad. However, with each passing year the mattress got worse and worse. The springs, the sagging, the warping, not good, not good at all.




I started talking about buying a new mattress three years ago. Each year at tax return time it just didn't feel right. I just couldn't figure out how to make it work - Ken's tuition + new mattress = not enough! This year, the math works.

Over the Christmas holidays Ken and I purchased a new mattress, box spring and frame. Today we had Christmas all over again, our new mattress was delivered at 7: 30pm. I'm so happy I could cry... oh wait, I did. (Just a little.)
