Tom and his brothers and sister:
It was our first anniversary the day after Thanksgiving. Tom's youngest brother passed around a card for everyone to sign. Including us. He said, "Sign this; it's for Matt's graduation." Neither of us noticed. They had a good hearty chuckle at that.
We went out Friday afternoon (our anniversary) and looked at rings. Last year we decided to get married on Thanksgiving--6 days before the day. There was no time to find a ring; I was going to borrow one, but my sister, Joan, bought one and I wore it for a year. We found this one, which I love.
I couldn't get a nice, clear photo of it, try though I might. And I did. Try.
If you squint your eyes just right, you might be able to see the detail in the center of the band. It looks just like a knit or crochet stitch. I didn't realize that till later that day, but it's so appropriate.
I gave a pair of socks to Tom's little nephew, Ryder, who is almost a year old.
And of course, we had to go by the beach. It wasn't hideously cold that day, just very windy after really hard winds and rain on Wednesday and a good bit of Thursday.

Nice, rita. I'll always remember your anniversary from now on as it's my birthday.
Happy Belated Annniversary!
The ring looks somewhat like Jackie's, by the way.
And I loved those socks too.
If we're going to live near a beach, it has to be a warm one. I'd prefer on the Gulf of Mexico, but I won't be too picky. Beach. Warm. Twenty-five more days until we hit Florida! Want to blow off Christmas with your family and come along with us? You'd be home for New Year's Eve!
Jeff, I remembered it was your birthday last year. Happy Belated Birthday to you! I do love those red socks. They're such a gorgeous color, and if I'm going to live where it gets cold, I need happy socks. Need a pair of nice, warm, wool socks, Jeff?
