Sunny Day-After-My Birthday

I am enjoying a wonderfully sunny day. Melissa and I walked to the bookmobile. Then we played outside together as we re-discovered parts of the front yard that make for a great outdoor "house". I showed her the two trees that used to hold a hammock in years past. Made a mental note to get a new hammock for Spring.

Yesterday was my birthday. I was just a wee bit grumpy. It was supposed to be sunny yesterday, but the weather was still cloudy and gloomy here. Karen was sick and Linda and Melissa were still coughing with leftover colds. I was still tired from working night shift the day before. That all made for an out-of-sorts-feeling family.

But then we had chocolate cake with whipped cream. For my birthday Dave and the girls gave me four really yummy-smelling candles. AND.... Dance Dance Revolution 3! (said with an echoing shout) for our Wii.

And today the sun is out!!! It’s time to go back outside and play! (I’ll save DDR3 for tonight after the sun goes down).
