Russ and I went to see Styx last night here in Montgomery. They were a favorite during the 80'ss and 90's. These are a friends pictures. We forgot to take a camera!!! They were awesome! There was nothing like seeing 1100.. 40 and 50 somethings sing "Come Sail Away" really loud!
Fact: Tommy Shaw, guitarist in first picture picture is from Montgomery. He was given the stage pretty much all night and got a great hometown welcome.
I had forgotten how talented these guys were. They music and lyrics are so incredibly well written for a "rock band"......
Needless to say, Russ and I had a very hard time getting up this morning. WOW! We are old!
Have a fun weekend!

Steven's 13th
Steven had a great birthday. We ate at Red Lobster(his choice) and then opened gifts and had cake. If you cant tell, that is a chess board cake with black and white candles. (my creation).
We postponed the camping trip until later. He was very blessed with his gifts! Thanks to EVERYBODY who sent a card or gift!
Dear friends and family,
Thank you for the birthday gifts. I loved them all. I am still trying to decide what to buy with my gift cards. I can't wait to shop.
Love, Steven

BIG 7!!!
On Our honeymoon (our 2nd one)in the Bahamas!!
This is our Amish in NYC look!
This was just this weekend....we've definitely aged some!! Two "challenging boys, a terrorist attack, some illness, poverty, lost job and moving...... 7 years later....we deserve to age!! AND have fun!
**************************
We always wondered what the 7 year itch was and I still don't know. In fact...today we were talking and our marriage, which has already weathered hardships, has gotten deeper, more comfortable and more satisfying!! Today we celebrated 7 years of marriage and we are more in love now than ever! Thank God for Jesus working in our marriage.
