Yesterday we went for a picnic at Colt State Park in Bristol, RI. It is one of our most favorite places to go. We always have the best time there. Yesterday it was packed, so we had to find another picnic area since our usual spot was taken. The nerve of some people. Any way, for the first time in at least 100 years since I've been coming to this park we saw this huge tree. At first there didn't seem like a way inside, but on the other side there was an entrance,two little archways are cut out, so you can go in. It felt like an entrance into a magical land. If only! As you walk in you are surrounded by the tree, and the first thing you notice are all the names of past and present sweethearts. As you can see Peter was prompted to add our initials too. So there we are. I guess they will be there long after we're gone. Our kids can come with their kids and tell them about the day, Grandpa carved his and Grandma's initials into the great tree. Thanks Peter for still thinking of me as your sweetheart, I love you.
P. S. Check out Sophie's blog for more cool pictures! http://stickthelanding73.blogspot.com/
That's quite a tree!

ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible tree, however what an incredible smile your sweetie has. She is just priceless. You just want to give her a big smootch on those cheeks.

Goodness Lacey's right, her hair does look like a combover. She just had a bubble and her hair was extra soft... I need some hair accessories!

ReplyDeleteThe tree reminds me of when my hubby and I carved our initials in a tree before kids. We've since taken the girls back to visit the tree. I was surprised we found the tree among hundreds after 10 years of not seeing it.
Why have I not been to your blog before!?! You comment all the time and it's like I know you. I feel like a dork (this is Lily's mom typing, Lily's not a dork!) Emilia is beautiful! What a happy little sweetheart you have. I'm adding your link right now!
