Belated Birthday Celebrations

Yummy, my sister decided to join us at the beach. Not only that, she surprised me by taking me to a birthday dinner. It was delightful. The food was good, the company, better. What a sweetie, and, she brought gifts. I have a collection, of sorts, of hand blown drinking glasses and she added to that with a great black and white one. I love it.

All-in-all, a pretty great day. Sun, sand, water, good food, great company, and GIFTS. How good is that? GREAT.

Happy Birthday, Chris

I cannot let the day go by without letting the world know that this is the day that brings a huge smile to my face. I love this day, every year. It is the day of our son, Chris,' arrival onto this earth and into my arms. I call him my "Birthday Present" because he arrived just six days before my own birthday. It also is evidence that my husband does have the ability to plan ahead with gifts since this is one of the few times he had my present ready before "the" day.

The Happiest of Birthday's my dear, sweet Chris

Due to Quilt Shows

Due to the quilt shows that we are attending this month, our family is celebrating our Mother's birthday three weeks early. Here is a photo of our Birthday Girl celebrating her 91st birthday. We are delighted to be here with all of our family, at the beach house, walking on the beach, eating fabulous food cooked by the incredible family and friends that we consider to be family. Life can change in a moment but these moments are good and I am going to enjoy them. Happy Birthday, Mother. I love you.
