Nesting on the Honeymoon

 During our Honeymoon, we acquired a dining room table and chairs and a couch for the living room that belonged to Robert's grandparents. They are true treasures for us, because they hold so many positive memories and transformed our apartment into a home.
Instead of "Where's Waldo," let's play "Where Are Those Pets?!?" If you look closely at the living room pictures, you can find Benny in two and Albert in one.

The Bacchus Stone: Your Barry McGee Family Newsletter

Our Wedding

This blog is designed to keep you updated with our latest news and to stay in contact with family and friends. Why is it called "Bacchus Stone?" Well, bacchus stone is another name for the gemstone, amethyst. Robert has had Bacchus in a screen name or email address for as long as I've known him, and I have a particular affinity for the amethyst as a stone. Interesting, those coincidences, eh? Do you have any significant coincidences in your life?
Robert and I met in high school, thirteen years ago. We dated when we were sixteen, and nineteen, twenty-five...and we finally married each other this September. It was one of the happiest days of our lives.
Now that we are married, I guess it is only natural that we begin to think of children and a family and a house. This blog is the place to follow us into our new journey of marriage.
We have a cairn terrier, Benny, and two tabby cats, Albert and Jak. They are likely to be featured often on this post, because they are part of our home and family and certainly contribute their share...of what, you'll soon discover.

Albert prefers the royal luxury of purple chiffon to just laying on the floor.
