Market Square 2016 with Jeffrey smirking
Jill Levin
June 27, 2017
Dec.2016 Jeffrey and I went to Pgh. to get a marriage license, do business and go shop at the Market Square X-mas market. I also took him to see the gingerbread houses in PPG that the kids make yearly.He watched me get my pic taken with Santa.I remember telling him to "look how happy I was in the pic", coz I was having such a great time with him that day. I never like pics of myself;so this was rare for me.
We laughed with the garage attendant,as well.Bif showed us the pic of his wife and how it was their 20th anniversary.
He met Emil that day, our professional fisherman that is now retired.They got along great and Jeffrey got to fish with him, as well as fix his screen door for him on Mon.May 22, 2017.He just took it upon himself to fix it;Emil never even asked for help. Jeffrey always gave out of his heart♥
Are we related ?{in sync thinking again} We had so much in common
June 27, 2017
Jeffrey and I had so much in common that I made a joke about getting a DNA test to make sure we weren't related.We agreed. I showed him this kit and we laughed.He loved me so much he told Sammy he didn't even care if we were! LOL..
The necklace with a cross
Jill Levin
June 27, 2017
The necklace I bought at Trinity church craft show last fall. I gave Jeffrey's mom my phone #, because I refused him several times prior. I bought the necklace that day and saw him that afternoon.
Lol.. in sync thinking:fishing lures"!
JIll Levin
June 27, 2017
I remember laughing together in my apartment when we both thought these could be used for fishing lures.LOL..Jeffrey's laugh and sparkle in his eyes were contagious..♥

Jeffrey was well liked ; no matter who we met when fishing together.
The gas line @ the Beach where we fished & camped out. "There's a gas line there" -"don't be afraid to step on the gas"; as Jeffrey pushes button to 4 wheel drive for Jill to get out of the rut! {whew!}
