Thank you for the birthday wishes...

I took a half-day today, and spent that afternoon with Laurel. Here are a few pictures of what I did on my birthday that made me feel like I really had a great day.

I spent some time on the porch, enjoying the new grass growing in the front yard, and wishing the mulch we purchased would find itself to the landscaping.
I worked on this quilt for the daughter of a friend. All it needs now is the binding.



I finished canning the green beans - I think I'm done canning for the summer as I am pretty much out of jars.

Laurel and I took a trip to the library to pick up some new reading material and puzzles. Then Bryan and Laurel took me to dinner with Key Lime Pie for dessert. Yum. We topped off the evening with a couple of episodes of Northern Exposure, a long time favorite TV show, now available on DVD.

We kept it pretty low key, its a weeknight you know. It was a good birthday, even though we were missing Rowan.


Thank you to all my many friends and family for the wonderful, loving and gentle birthday wishes.

Colleen
