The Heavens are Celebrating too!

Post image for The Heavens are Celebrating too!

Six years ago this week, Nature Boy and I got married

(how it has only been 72 months is impossible to me… We’ve crammed a whole lot of living into six years!)

In celebration of our anniversary (in which I should be giving either candy or iron ?! ), we are instead ordering up a little celestial celebration

That’s right, in honor of my anniversary the heavens are putting on a show! It’s the annual Perseid Meteor shower, widely regarded as some of the best star gazing of the year. From around 10 p.m. until dawn, hundreds of meteors will be visible as the earth passes through the dust cloud of a comet.

And since astronomers recommend that watching the stars in an area with low city lights, we’re going to head outside and have a picnic dinner… A little wine, some cheese, maybe some chocolates.

And we’ve made arrangements to have some live music provided by this dapper fellow…

Doesn’t get much better than this.

Good, True & Beautiful


What about you? Any good things to share this week?

Happy Anniversary! Here’s to many more ;-)
Lovely way to celebrate! There’s so much artificial lighting where I live that seeing such celestial events is impossible … though I considered driving to the desert or the mountains to see this one.
Hugs and blessings,

Wow, congrats! We just celebrated 4 years…and I was thinking the same thing — where did that time go?

I’ve been told that time only goes fast as you age…so let’s try to enjoy life as much as possible right now!!

Happy Anniversary! That is joyful. My husband and I give each other a memory on our anniversary, much like you are having tonight. Rather than try to outdo the last year’s gift….we decided that we would rather spend the money on an evening o’ fun. We have lots of memories….33 years worth. Here is the post I made in honor of my hubby this July and a poem that I wrote for him. Thought I would just share it with you in case you didn’t see it.

Sharon, hope your anniversary was very special. Congratulation on your faithful marriage! I always enjoy reading about your family. I didn’t know about the meteor shower. I’m going to poke my head outside now and see if anything is visible. Thanks for the ‘heads up’!

And why wouldn’t the heavens be celebrating you guys? Congratulations on six years! Did you get the candy or the iron?

Just to prove how emotionally sappy I am right now, I was so happy for you as I reading through this that I got all misty-eyed. Actually maybe it was the mention of the wine that I won’t be having for the next 18 months…

Didn’t have time to link up yesterday, but still enjoyed your reason for joy this week!
