George and I started dating on March 29, 2001. Our love for each other grew very quickly.. It was a very special date on April 21, 2001 when George took me to Fall Creek Falls. That was where I got my FIRST KISS and where we both told one another that we were falling in love with each other. It was also the beginning of our love for visiting all kinds of different waterfalls!!!
SO---almost every year since 2001, we have revisited Fall Creek Falls on this day. Bet you can guess where we are going today?????? YES---to Fall Creek Falls, and I'm sure we will share our pictures from this wonderful place soon.
Today I will show you a few pictures from some of the previous April 21st trips to Fall Creek Falls. The picture above is of two of the six waterfalls there, Fall Creek Falls (on left) and Coon Creek Falls (on right). This picture was taken on April 21, 2006. It was pouring rain that year, so we didn't get any pictures of the two of us. Below are more pictures.

Finally, here's Cane Creek Falls from the side---along with rainbow, which I'm sure was there JUST for us on our special day, April 21, 2009.
For your information, IF we have pictures from 2003-2005, they are unavailable at this time. We did visit Fall Creek Falls during those years though.
Hope you have as wonderful a day today as I'm sure we will have!!!!!
Hugs,
Have fun Betsy and George!
ReplyDeleteYou to are so romantic it is like a breath of fresh air reading your love for one another. You seem to be growing younger on it every year. Unfortunately April 21st is a sad day for me. It is the day my father died way back in 1983 when he was only a few years older than I am now. Tomorrow too will be a sad day as it was my brother's birthday but this is the second one he has missed he would have been only 73.However I hope you have a great day, looking forward to more photos of the love birds and Fall Creek Falls. I used to go skiing in the Victorian Mountains at a place called Fall's Creek.
ReplyDeleteI never saw two happier or more in love people in my life!!! Hope you have a wonderful time at the Falls!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you and George celebrate the special days in your life, Betsy. Fall Creek Falls is a gorgeous place. Have a wonderful time there today!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful 2010 trip there Betsy!
ReplyDeleteIt is a trully wonderful place and I'm not at all surprised to see why you go there every year!
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary to both of you and don't forget to give what George asked :D
Betsy, You and George are just the sweetest couple, so in love. Enjoy your return visit today. I LOVE the picture of you two peeking around the tree. Such fun folks.
ReplyDeleteTravel Safe
Enjoy your kiss today! Don't forget to look at the waterfall too. :D
ReplyDeleteI hope the day is as fair down your way as it is up here. Enjoy your trip to the falls.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time, Betsy. Your pictures are delightful--love the smiles, and the waterfalls, too.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Adrienne
You guys set the romantic bar so very high. I'm sure there are grumbling husbands out there as their wives say "Why aren't you more like George?"
ReplyDeleteYou two are truly blessed. Enjoy each moment and anniversary.
Hope you have a great day. Fall Creek Falls is the place my husband asked me to marry him, way back in Feb. 1985. We married in December 1985.
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful day Betsy and George, you little love birds!
ReplyDeleteSunny :)
Have fun! :) That really is a pretty state park. I would enjoy visiting again....especially getting my wife on the swinging bridge. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are just TOO cute! Love those pictures! Happy day to you and George! The Mister and I still celebrate our first 'date' every year. I gave him a Valentine when we were in high school...we've been together ever since! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, you two lovebirds!!!! Have a great visit. Remember, life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet pictures. I hope you have a great day!
ReplyDeleteNow if that isn't one of the sweetest love stories, I just don't know what is! I have said it before ~ but I think you two are just the sweetest couple!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your special day Betsy & George!

ReplyDeleteHi Betsy. I just love the first photo. It almost looks like a bird's eye view, so high. The mist makes the falls look mysterious and magical.
ReplyDeleteSo romantic to have your own special place. You are very, very luck to have a guy with such a sentimental heart. And of course he's very, very lucky too.

ReplyDeleteCute pictures of you and George. Pretty water pictures, too. Have a great time!! (Did you think when those first pictures were taken that you'd ever be sharing them with your blogging friends??) Diane
ReplyDeleteSorry Betsy, I got distracted by all the love on this mornings comment and forgot to answer your question. Yes, Mel has a waterfall, in her yard. It's a water feature that she built. I however, have one trickling down our creek at the cabin when the water is high enough. Will have to post some pictures soon.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous journal of your first kiss anniversary! Great photos! Just know that you will enjoy your visit again! Be blessed! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful that you two have a special place to return to every year. How romantic.
ReplyDeletethese are wonderful memories, and each you look better and better, how can that be??? you should be looking older each year, but I think you look younger. could that be love? my favorite is the 08 peeking around the tree.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wondeful day at the falls! Happy Anniversary! I am still having problems getting you blog to download - most likely my computer!
ReplyDeleteFall Creek Falls is a very special place indeed!
