I sent in my video “The Lollipop tree” see it below a couple of post down.

My parents celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary this last Saturday. Their Anniversary was actually on the 8th but logistics delayed the party until the 20th. I introduced my grandson to several great and great great aunts and uncles. He spent his day being passed around from one person to the next. Only a couple of times did he object to the handoff. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My parents renewed their vows. My dad’s older brother performed the ceremony. My daughter Morgan assisted by holding the bible. After my parents exchanged their vows my uncle asked if anyone had anything to say. All the adults stared at the ceiling or the floor not sure what to say. I want to say something but I was afraid I would cry. My nine year old daughter Morgan stepped up and said “Grandma and Grandpa I am so glad that you have been married for 5o years. I love you very much!” She was very brave. I wouldn’t have been able to do that at her age.

LOL! Morgan and I made a video called the Lollipop Tree. I would never make it to Hollywood on American Idol! Simon would probably vote me off after the first couple of bars if he let me get that far. This video is actually in response to the closetsinger.com He asked people to make video and mention his website and so I did. I have known this song since I was a child. It was originally sang by Burl Ives. His version is much better than mine.

This took two days to film and the second day it snowed. I should have reshot the video of Morgan eating the ice cream cone under the tree during the snow but I had family obligations and no time to reshoot. When I uploaded the video to youtube the audio became out of sync with the video.  I don’t know why because my local copy on my computer is working fine. grrr!!!

Tomorrow is my parents 50th wedding Anniversary party. I had a cake made for the occasion. I am worried the weather is going to make it impossible to travel to Nashville.

We are currently under a winter storm warning. We are suppose to get snow starting today thru tomorrow. Knox county closed schools last night at 7pm. The kids didn’t have to go to school today.

My parents are having their 50th wedding anniversary party tomorrow in Nashville. I’m going to cry if it snows enough that I can’t get over the mountains and attend. I am picking up their anniversary cake after work.

Today I failed at being a mom. I was cleaning house when Morgan asks if she can use her easy bake oven. I said “yes” so that she would stay out of the way.  Once I am on a roll cleaning I need people out of the way and let me do what I need to do.

It takes 12 minutes to bake a cake in the easy bake oven.  Morgan decided it was too hard to see the cake cook in the easy bake oven so she asked me if she could use the microwave. I wasn’t paying attention when I said “yes”.  10 minutes into baking her tiny cake in the microwave it catches fire. Smoke filled the house. It seems I forgot to tell Morgan that microwaves cook things really quickly.

I failed at being a mom. Poor Morgan was scared to death.

It’s snowing in Powell Tennessee. The roads are a bit slippery. slipped to the bottom of my driveway when I got home. It was a bit scary, thought I was going to hit Stephanie’s car for a moment. That would have been bad.
