OK, This is an attempt to play around a little. I got this new Flip video camera the other day and we of course have to play with it. I left My husband have it a min and he said dance LOL. I said are you going to record me? he said yes, so I danced to one of my songs I like a lot. Prince and" When Doves Cry" So here it is me, Dancing, being me enjoy. I had gone to lunch with my friend and was showing the camera to her. I recorded her for a few sec and she said I made her blush, I could not tell. Than she took it and held up to me as she is saying it is so clear and I say yes it is we laughed.
I said, I got it for Stan, but he says, no you really got it for you . My idea is for us to go for those rides in the mountains like we do in hopes to see things which does not happen a lot but you never know.
Let me say one thing, I have been a dancing fool almost all my life since i was 11 i went to dances with my then 13 year old sister to (like mom said) keep an eye on her. So we went every Friday Night and we had a good time dancing while she was boy watching. I was just there because I was a good dancer and I simply loved it. It was not till I was a week from turning 12 that a man came up to me and said, how old are you, I said I am 11 but I will be 12 next week, he said well you can stay but you are to be 12 to be here. LOL I had him fooled for a year. Now here we are some 45 years later and although I still love to dance it is not as good as it used to be and never again will I attempt the song "Wipe Out" my sister and I use to really wiggle to that one but after trying it last year we both know it is over for us. By the way One of the guys my sister used to go to the dance to watch and flirt with is now her Husband for over 30 years. I am going to close now so enjoy the show at my EXPENCE BYE

I got up Wednesday July29, with the hope of seeing my Grand Children soon,Since my son said he was coming I had been trying to make my house 3 year old proof. I sent him a text in the morning and said, Hi what are you doing today? He came back with drinking coffee and watching the stock market. I sent back to him and said, HA HA no, are you still coming and when? I had to work from 1 to 5:30 so I knew it was going to be later in the day. He said I will be there when you get home. So I went about my day getting excited to have a chance to spend time with Addie and Tyler. To be honest, I don't remember my day so much but SHHH don't tell my boss.
I finally ended the day and I took off to the time clock, I looked at it and it was not time yet with one min left but we can not hit it till right on time or up to and including 7 min after so I got my stuff out of the locker room, I went right up front and talked to the girl at the front a sec. then I walked right out the door. Did you catch the boo boo ? I DID NOT PUNCH OUT . I noticed it when it was way to late so I left it alone and said I would worry about it tomorrow. So on home I was heading when I tried to call Stanley but no answer. I hung up and a sec later he called me back, he said no he has not seen Josh yet but he was going to get in the shower before he got there, as I was talking to him my phone rang and it was Josh so I left Stan go and answered Josh. I said where are you, he said, I am on Salem road I said oh no you passed my house it is the first house on Salem, see Salem is about 7 miles long.
He said Ok I will turn around, I said, and I will be there too I am almost home.
As I pulled into the drive he was standing there with his dog on the leash and on his phone again. I got out and greeted them, I gave Addison a big hug and had to get Tyler out of the car.
I told him to come up on the porch but first let me get my dog to meet you and Jinx(his dog). Now picture a 99lb black dog greeting a 2lb poodle. Jake came outside barking for all to see his happy tail wag, Jinx came up to the gate and they sniffed and Jinx came right in between the rails. I said I guess all is good and they were buds the rest of the time.
Of course it is now time to get supper and Joshua is hungry, I said I could make some Hot Dogs and he said how bout going to a pizza place His treat now how can we pass that up.
We went up the road to a nice little place and had subs and pizza. As we were sitting there With Tyler on the other side of the table looking at me said to his Dad, Daddy Grammie looks like you. We laughed and Josh said yes she does and you look like your mom. He smiled, I do love my Kids so much and seeing them is special since it does not happen much.
I said to the kids we have something for you when you get back to the house.Addison said is it my present,Her B'day was a few days before. I said yes, I have something, but I meant we have ice cream ,She looked at her dad and said I told you she would have something. That was cute and boy was I glad I did have it.
We finished and went back to the house, we had left Jinx alone with Jake and took our chance Jinx would not tear up anything, he has seperation anxiaty, I hope he can get over that. As we came in the house all looked good and dogs were happy to see us.
As I got the gifts out and made ice cream cones for the kids the evening was going good. Addison loves her gift and Tyler liked his too.
It was getting late and the kids were ready to go home. I said I hope to see you here again and Josh said it is not that far I will bring them back soon. In all Addisons life I have lived away from where she is so I have not seen her grow I am hopping to see Tyler grow more he is now 3 and darn he is not Potty broke yet. He is refusing to go in the pot. he messed in his pants and said change me. I said to him you are getting to old for this so please go in the potty and he said ok. I went out to his dad and said to Ty now where are you going to go poopy? he said In my pants LOL we just shook our heads, he will not do it. I know one day he will just out of the blue so patience will have to do.

The Real story


Hello, My name is Mary the M of msphotos I want to tell you a story of how m and s became what we are. It was Nov. 2006 and I was on Yahoo Personals looking for someone to be with. When lo and behold I found Stanley of course I left him alone for 2 months while I was still searching.Silly move on my part.
When my Mother looked at his picture and his name she said "that would be funny if you married him you would be Mary Yoder and we laughed at that. See, her maiden name is Yoder( no relation). Well the holidays came and went and I went to my sons to babysit for them. I opened up the yahoo and there was Stanleys name like I had sent him an invite which i did not.
I left him a message saying it was nice to hear from him again and then i went home for the night.I got home and opened it again at home and there was a note from him saying, " hello, long time no see". We started to talk again and made plans after a while to meet in person, the scary part of meeting on the puter. LOL We made plans for Feb.18Th but well the best laid plans of mice and men did not work.My Father passed away that day so meeting was out of the question till after the Funeral.
We got back to the meeting a week and a half later so about Feb. 27 we met and well we liked each other. I came to see him almost every other day and he came to see me.Oh I did not say he lives one and a half hour from my hometown.
Now I was here visiting him one day in March and my work called me and asked if I would work at another store to help with inventory.I said yes i will, because it was the store in his home town area. I told the personell lady I even know where I can stay for those 3 days. You got it right here with him. I then came and worked 3 days and had the next 3 off so I stayed all week.
One thing led to another and about April 21 I was starting to work at the other store and I moved in with him. Things were going great, we would go hiking in the mountains taking photographs. I have some cute ones of him with big smiles on his face,something he did not do much, but now was a happy man. Now I'm not saying I'm perfect but he sure was smitten with me. We were doing very well and about late June he came to me and said, when do you want to get married? I said, you tell me, so he went to the calender and said how about Oct 13 2007 I said OK that will be fine and we started to make plans.
We had hurdles to get over trying to find a place to get married but one day his sister said why not try my church.We went to find out and the pastor said he would but would you join the church it will not cost you if you do. We did join, he got baptized and the whole nine yards.
I had the honor of making all my decorations, Flowers for me and him and the moms, I did the centerpieces and all that went with it. We had a great and wonderful Oct.day it was sunny and warm and just beautiful.
Now it has been 1 year and nine months and we finally decided to try to sell the photos he took after walking the mountains for years.

This is the site, enjoy. We sell prints, mugs, puzzles and more. You can order right from the site. New photos will be updated periodically.
