APRIL 21 is an important day for George and me. It was on April 21, 2001 when I got my first KISS from George. We started
dating on March 29, and our love grew very fast... On April 21 that
year, he took me to FALL CREEK FALLS STATE PARK. This is where that
first kiss happened, and it is also where our mutual love of waterfalls
began. Fall Creek Falls has several waterfalls --and we like to visit
them all several times a year. This is also the place where we told
each other that we loved each other on that same day... SO-----we have revisited this special place EVERY year on this date...
I found photos of us from several years ---but don't seem to have anything (that we can find) from about 2003-2005..... Not sure where our pictures from those years have gone --but that was before blogging --and many of the photos are somewhere on an old digital disk maybe....????? BUT--today, I'll share with you what we do have...

Well---that's US through the years!!!!! George has stayed about the same all through the years --but my poor weight has fluctuated my entire adult life.... FINALLY though, I have learned (although it still takes discipline and WORK) to keep that weight under control. After I started maintenance in August of 2012, I have maintained that weight (or even been less than when I began maintenance) since then --for these past 20 months. HOORAY for ME. That is a HUGE accomplishment. I hope I can still say this after 20 more months --and on and on....
I will admit though that the excess weight ---and fluctuation ---did take a toll on my poor body causing some health problems which I am always dealing with. My advice to a young adult: Get control of your weight while you are young and do NOT go through life letting it control you!!!!!
Regardless, April 21st is a special day for George and me.. We love to celebrate --and have LOTS of firsts which we celebrate --including our Monthaversaries!!!! We just say that we have LOTS of years to catch up on!!!!! ha
Hope you have a wonderful weekend. AND---if interested, you can see any or all of the blog posts I have done about this special day... Just click
HERE to scroll through them....
Can't believe it's MAY now!!!! April just flew by! BUT---I do have new quotes on my sidebar for this month ---so please take time to read them... These quotes probably speak to most of us --in one way or another!!!!!
Hugs,
