Thirteen

Maybe Jason's not so bad after all...


He came home this afternoon with 13 roses for our 13th wedding anniversary.

Thirteen years ago we still had good skin elasticity. Ah, those were the days...

Signing our lives away in 1998 at our no-frills wedding

Mr Rooney, our kid-friendly builder, came around today to do more work on the casement windows.

However, he got a bit side tracked helping the boys make timber "creations"...The boys loved every minute of it.

Son #2 harassed Mr Rooney throughout the day for the use of his nail gun.
 This is his version of a watchtower. That's son #3 in the nappy.

Mr Rooney helped Son #1 make an épée

  2. What's an 'epee'? Such an ignoramus.

    I'm almost crying at the 13 years. You're right, Jason's not bad ...

    Get off the computer and get back to work, Anita!
