We celebrated Frank's 60th birthday last Sunday at The Cheesecake Factory. YUM!
Me, Jeremy, Frank
Anna, Pam, Shawn (and no, they didn't plan to coordinate)
It wouldn't be a party if we didn't have the servers sing!
They really decorated his dessert. Too bad they actually decorated Jeremy's plate instead of Franks....oops! The thought was there though!
I got this one - it is there special 30th anniversary cheesecake. Yummy!!!
Oh yeah, and our actual food was good too :)

Frank officially retired from Westinghouse yesterday, after over 35 years. His party was last Friday night and was pretty fun. Jeremy and I were asked to raid the old pictures at the house and find the good ones so they could make a poster with them.
During his fighting days while he was in Korea
Here are just a few from the collage:
"Would you buy a used car from this man?"
"Auditioning for 'Dances with Wolves'" (Jeremy is the little baby Frank is holding in the picture to the right)
The speech!
His big retirement gift!
Frank & Anna
Happy Retirement, Dad!
Our 1st Anniversary
We celebrated our first wedding anniversary on January 12. I still can't believe that a year has past. Jeremy and I didn't plan a big get-a-way or anything like that; we just enjoyed dinner together at the wonderful Olive Garden :)
Jeremy surprised me when I came home from work the Friday before our anniversary with an aquarium stand. I didn't realize the change at first but when I scanned the living room I noticed the table that it had been sitting on was now behind the couch. Only then did I realize that something was different. He did a great job picking it out! He then also made a pretty funny comment - "I really liked this one because it has the glass door on the one side and then the shelves on the other side so you can put your pretty sit around things on it. Not that I care about things like that, but they do look nice."
Jeremy's present from me is a fuel line for his truck. Awwww - the romance!

I really need to sit down and update but I want to get this out there. A good friend of mine, Amanda, and her mother published their first book not too long ago. Amanda did the illustrations and her Mom wrote it. The main characters are Amanda's little brother and sister and they are really cute!
I finally got a chance to see it and read it this past weekend and it was great. They are still working on getting it in stores, but if you are interested in purchasing any they are available. CLICK HERE FOR THE WEBSITE The book is only $6.50 and will make a great gift. Let me know if you are intersted.
Thanks!
