My, How We've GROWN!

Today is Wednesday and you know what that means, right? It's time for Wordful Wednesday hosted by Angie of 7 Clown Circus. Pop on over and join in the fun!

Now, this picture was taken of Chris and me several years ago when we went to the Florida Keys with his former employer. We went out with a couple of friends of ours one afternoon and did some exploring and shopping. We couldn't resist the opporunity to have them snap our pictures posing as "full-figured" tourists...and I mean FULL-FIGURED! Please, someone assure me that this isn't what we're going to look like as we get older! Of course, now that I look at it...mine's not half bad! Chris, on the other hand...

P.S. Just as I promised, I chose a winner for my "Followers Monthly Giveaway" using Random.org. The winner this month is Darlene #51! Congratulations, Darlene! If you could e-mail me your home address, I'll get it in the mail to you ASAP! Don't forget, everyone, I'll be having a giveaway at the end of every month for all of my loyal followers! That's not an April Fool's joke, either! :)
