Friday, June 2, 2006Happy Birthday, Karen!

Daughter's birthday today! Shane painted the letters for the sign while Mac and I blew up balloons to hang in the living room. It's very festive. We made brownies and had our own version of 'death by chocolate'... a brownie topped with rocky road ice cream topped with cool whip topped off with a Hersey's kiss. Not room enough for that bunch of candles so we each had a candle and made a wish for her before blowing. Gramma got so involved with the decorations that she for got to put the roast in the oven so we went out for dinner! Thank goodness it was Friday when there is a restaurant open in these woods!  That's Shane on the left and Mac in the right, with Mom under the banner.

Randy and the boys drove up to Mt. Meadow today, just to look. He said the road is open but a muddy mess. Didn't take any 'snow' pics because it was all brown! But our southern crackers counted it as snow, anyway! They all enjoyed the ride and Gramma stayed home and enjoyed the quiet!

It's still spring, I guess.
 Can you spot Mrs. Stellar Jay? Randy tore the nest efforts out of here once> It's in a high traffic area between the loom shop and his 'junk/wood' shed and he thought it not a good place to rear young, but it's been pretty wet lately and while he was feeling smug about having discouraged them, and not paying attention they rebuilt the nest and she's setting now, so it's too late. I don't think the cats can get to them there and they are under the roof so safe from the weather, too. We can only wish them well. The Temperature is already up to 68 this morning so it looks like we might hit 70 today! Yeah!!
