Anniversary "Time Away" Four Months Late



Our tenth wedding anniversary was back in June but a lot was happening during that time so we really didn't do anything special. This past week though we were able to schedule some time away, so the boys stayed with Uncle Philip and Aunt Amrie and Gwen and I went to Bloemfontein. I surprised Gwen by taking her to the Free State Botanical Gardens. That's where we got the pictures of the clivia miniata (above).


We stayed at a little Bed & Breakfast for one night. It wasn't high class but it was comfortable and relaxing.


Sitting at the little table above was a nice place to read the Bible and enjoy the cool morning air from the backyard of the B&B.  Below you can see our little breakfast corner. The food was first class.  We couldn't eat everything our host provided.  We had a nice time and we are thankful God has given us ten years together.

What a beautiful place! Glad you could get a way for a while. I am sure the boys are tickled with their puppy. We surely miss ours but with our schedules we can not see getting one for right now. The gardens remind me off many years ago in the Royal Botanical Garden of Kingston, Jamaica....I think we were there in 1974!!!!
Love,
Dad

Looks like you had a nice time! I am sorry we didn't watch the boys more for you all than we did so you could have celebrated earlier! The puppy is very cute. I am sure you all will enjoy him. God bless, KB
