Bless my homeland forever.

I just watched Oprah's Favorite Things episode featuring the entire Sound of Music cast. It brought back such great memories of dancing around my living room singing "I am 16 going on 17.." But nothing warms my heart more than when Christopher Plummer sings Edelweiss to his country Austria. Perhaps it has to do with the fact I just found out that I am 25% Austrian.  All this time we thought we were German. I must have always known in my heart that I was Austrian because I am deeply attached to this song. I couldn't find the particular clip that I love but here is clip of him singing Edelweiss to his family for the first time. Oh how I love the Sound of Music. I can't wait to watch it with my children and grandchildren. What am I saying? I can definitely wait. ; )

"I feel like I just licked a florist."

Helloooo everyone! I am back and ready with some blogging.

While I was gone David and I celebrated 4 months of wedded bliss. We decided we should break into our cake top to celebrate the occasion.
Here is how we justified not waiting for our 1 year anniversary:
1. We kept hearing over and over again how tasty our cannoli filled cake was and we were jealous because we only got a small bite each.
2. Many of our friends who waited the whole year for their cake told us it tasted like freezer. Well I myself have never tasted a freezer before but I can't imagine it being very tasty.
3. 4 months is monumental. Many celebrity marriages don't even last this long.
4. We like cake and wanted to eat it.

Here is our cake:

My reaction, "Oh look David some of our flowers are still on the cake. I loved our flowers."

David then proceeded to take a bite out the cake to "test it out first." He then danced around the kitchen hoping that would somehow make it easier to get the disgusting cake down into his stomach.

He yelled "I feel like I just licked a florist!"

So maybe it's not good when the flowers are kept on your cake for four months because it will in fact make the whole cake taste like those exact dead flowers.

You learn something new everyday. ; )

Slacker...

I have been majorly slacking on my blog lately.  I decided that I am most interested in blogs when there are pictures up. So I would like to share the same with you. Unfortunately I'm not the best at whipping out my camera at any given moment so I'm going to try and work on that.
We'll catch up soon. I will try to deliver what I've promised.
