NES Classic and Mario are too

much fun! I laugh, yell, scream, 

jump and sweat when I play.

It's exhausting. lol

See what I mean? I'm on my feet
and running along with my new
hero Mario. This little

guy tires me out...

Whew. Kirby's adventure now.
Sorry Mario...

I needed a break :)

I wish everyone could have a 

brother like Owen K. Bentley...

 Owen smiles a lot...

 He makes me smile a lot

And he doesn't mind going to my

Dr. appointments with me.

i love a good surprise...

Meet Floppy. I love this dog as much as I love Howie and Olive...

Floppy lived with Cookie and Pops for about 32 years. All I did was say I wish he lived at my house...

Poof. Next thing you know, Floppy was swinging on our back deck! Now he's mine, hopefully for another 32 years!

A Wadsworth Homestead Wedding IV

Who knew a wedding would be so much fun?

I danced every single dance, even though my 

Uncle picked me up for the first one.
After that, I was a dancing machine

 The end...

A Wadsworth Homestead Wedding Part III

Not only did I have the prettiest
dress EVER on for the wedding...
my dancing shoes were ready, too.

 And who better to two step with
than my Uncle? I call him Paco.
Don't ask me why, but the name stuck.

I'm a good dance teacher...

 

A one and a two....

 This was much better because Paco
is TALL!

xxxooo

A Wadsworth Homestead Wedding Part II

The wedding was storybook. Mary Kate's Dad surprised her by 

bringing her to the ceremony in a carriage! 

That was so cool. She was surprised and so was 

everyone else!

My cousin and Pops waited for his bride.They
watched her and I watched them!

I really liked the ceremony. I hope Pops can 

marry my husband and me someday.

The lighting of the candle. As you can see,

 I LOVED that part.

Ceremony over. Owen and I need something now.

After all, it was 87 degrees and humid!

We drank our drinks in 2.5 seconds. I

really wanted to dump that drink over

my head. Uh, I knew better lol

Stay tuned for more....

A Wadsworth Homestead Wedding...

I had a very exciting Labor Day weekend. 

Owen and  I were in our 2nd cousins 

wedding.

The wedding was @ at The Wadsworth Homestead. 

It's beautiful.

Well, everyone needs nourishment you know. 

A kiddie Mimosa before I got dressed worked 

for me.

See the pretty lady in pink? She 

MADE my dress. Did I mention 

that her daughter is the bride? The

other pretty lady is my Godmother.

I call her Auntie LeeLee :)

Ta-da! How do I look?

Now I know how Cinderella felt :)

We all know who that pretty lady is...

M-O-M

chef's restaurant in buffalo is the best place to eat...

 I love Chef's restaurant in Buffalo. 

Mmm. Delicious bread, and an

 interesting glass to boot... 

 

When they first offered Owen and I

bibs, we said no. Until we realized

that EVERYONE wears bibs at 

Chef's. So why not????

I'd never heard of spaghetti parm

before. I can't even tell you how

delicious it was and how much fun

I had eating it :)

like mother like daughter...

My mother when she was

my age...

I wonder if she still has

that Casio...

my first college graduation...

My Uncle graduated from college this 

weekend, and we were there:)

 My iPad was r-e-a-d-y...

 Here he comes with his diploma!
