until next time~

a father and son adventure..

last weekend trip to Monteagle Tn., South Cumberland State Park, Stone Door Trail…

I love this photo. of my guys. of their time together. time they both will always remember. these Boyscout events are so much more then just a hike or a camp out. they are precious time spent with a father and son. skills Calvin is learning along side his father that he would never do otherwise. memories Calvin will take into his adulthood. memories of a caring present father.  the encouragement, joys, struggles, wonder and success, involved in these outdoor hikes and camping trips together are the best of times… something they will always have together… priceless!

My always thoughtful husband, picked up 5 tickets from Bridgestone to the dress rehersal  of The Student Prince, Opera  for me to invite 4 of my fabulous friends to attend last Thursday night. Bridgestone employees are often given the opportunity for FREE tickets to the dress rehearsals, which are actual performances, of events at TPAC. We had a wonderful time. Starting out taking a few quick point & shoot photos at home, Tricia was home sick with the flu so we held a balloon to represent her anyways! We had a marvelous dinner at Wasabi Japanese Steak house and grill… The Opera was wonderful… And we will never forget Cindi’s little incident walking over the grate! A true Marilyn moment!   I am grateful to have such fun friends to share times like these… and a husband who is always so thoughtful!

time for just one from my family session yesterday… more soon!

Been a while since I’ve posted a music video…  I feel like this today…
