40 Years of Marriage and All They Get is a Weekend at a Dude Ranch

Graham and I are off tomorrow for a weekend adventure of family reunion excitement and celebrating his parents' 40th wedding anniversary. I am excited to to celebrate Jenny and John's 40 years of marriage, and to spend time with Graham's extended family, but I am having mixed feelings about the long list of activities that has grown over the last few months. My adolescent shyness is taking over as I type just THINKING about the e-mail where my wonderful mother-in-law excitedly proclaimed that our family talent show would have to be moved to SUNDAY night, because we will be doing LINE DANCING on Saturday. Plus, she wanted us to remember to send her a fact about ourselves that nobody would know. With the exception of Graham's parents and sister, NOBODY knows ANYTHING about me, so I figured I could just SHOW UP and have everyone ponder the mystery of my very EXISTENCE.

It's going to take place on a Dude Ranch (DUDE! It's a RANCH!), and I am looking forward to spending some time with horses and maybe swimming with our little nieces Lauren and Avery. My mouth is watering just thinking of the baby's sweet bitable chub. Yummy babies!

Hope you all have a grand weekend. I'll tell you how the line dancing goes.
