Trenton is 32

I made Trenton a cake in his actual birthday so he could share with his co workers and we took him to a local bar with some great burgers that have been highly reviewed…CJ’s Pub in South Bend. And yep. Good burgers for sure! Good food and good conversation. Happy 32nd birthday to Trenton!

31 years

We celebrated 31 years today. Ben got me a dozen beautiful red roses and took me to Chubby Trout for dinner. Had some wonderful salmon and Ben got prime rib. I’ve been wanting to get Ben an outdoorsman ring and figured our anniversary would be the perfect time. It’s made of three things he loves. Antler, fishing line and wood. All to represent outdoors. Got the ring engraved also “B & C Better Together”  
Hard to believe it’s been 31 years but wouldn’t trade it for the world.

Holiday Get Together

Since Gabi and Emma are officially working women it is much harder to plan our annual Christmas dinner. We had to postpone to January but so happy we finally got a day and time. Love these girls and this tradition. The girls even chose Olive Garden this time.

2023

It’s tradition at this point to get together with the kids and their significant others and/or family on either New Years Eve or New Years Day to bowl. In years past we have gone to Strikes and Spares but this year we opted for Parkway (old stomping grounds) right when they opened at 4 pm and it was the best idea!  We played three games and had appetizers and pizza. A great time by all!
