What a busy weekend, so happy Tip was here to see me through. As you know Sunday was our anniversary. Tiptoe brought me a dozen long stemmed red roses for a gift. She prepared herself for the celebration and that is all I will leave for a hint. I do not want to give too many details away and I promise to figure out the picture posting adventure. Right now I am just concerned with taking the pictures and keeping the journal up to date. Lots of work girls but well worth it, she has a special power.

Tiptoe learned how to play guitar with Ed. He has several guitars and while in New Hampshire I bought him a 'mini' replica of one of the guitars that he owns. Wait until you see the picture, it is so 'Tiptoe-ish'!! Have I mentioned that she is so cute?? She was there playing the guitar just like she owned it. Later we will be going for cider and possibly apple picking depending on how Ed feels.

Mom came over to bring the flannel 'Breast Cancer Ribbon' blanket to Tiptoe. It is gorgeous; white background with pink bows and phrases on it like 'hope', 'faith', 'care', 'love', 'life'. Her hands were a bit unsteady for this lifelong seamtress (she made all my clothes when I was little) but you and I would never notice (well maybe now because I said so). I took out my beanie heat/cold packs she made and warmed one up, the print on that is a pink backgroung w/pink ribbons. Tiptoe quickly settled on the heated pack as I covered her with her new blankie.

She will be going to see Chester today or tomorrow. She is a chatty little rodent and has empowered me more than I could ever imagine. Gotta go, she is summoning me again.>>Believe51
