Birthday Picnic






Though my birthday was on Monday, my boyfriend and I had Sunday to celebrate together. He surprised me with a picnic at Rosetta McLain Gardens. This park is just gorgeous. And the squirells are quite friendly too. In a somewhat secluded area of the park are the remains of Rosetta's house. I love old houses, so this was quite a treat to see.

The only info I could find on the park through google were photography. Seems lots of people have their wedding pics taken there. And who could blame them. If anyone out there has more info on Rosetta McLain I'd be thrilled if you let me in on it.

Thanks Sweetie for the lovely picnic!

My actual birthday wasn't very exciting. Due to the heat I was exhausted and allowed myself a long nap, which I usually feel guilty about. But heck it was my b-day, I'm allowed to indulge.

Brother Jay's Blog

I got an email from my bro yesterday with a link to his blog. I didn't even know he was writing one!

Well...He's impressed me. But maybe that's because he's my big brother:)

Check it out! I've add the link to Jay's Blog >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Do I Look Any Older?



I sure don’t feel it!

I turn 29 on the 29th. I'm still trying to drill that into my mind. All year I was thinking I was still 27 turning 28 this year. I even put my age as 27 on a form I had to fill out recently. My mom pointed out my faux pas. At least she remembers how old I am. Time sure flies!

I got an early B-day present!!!

This year my sweet parents and my brother got me a new digital camera. I love it!!!! Its a Fujifilm Finepix A400. Finally, I have optical zoom and a macro function for getting nice detail shots for things I list on Ebay. Now just to learn how it all works ;)

My old camera (Hp photosmart 120) has been past on to my brother. May it serve him well.

These pics are with the new camera. One is of the poo-factory geese, who will soon be banned from the yard. I love them and all but they make a huge mess. And that huge mess gets carried into the house. It’s not a good thing!

The other pic is my new friend, Curly. Well that’s what I call him anyway. He/she is the neighbours new dog. Here he is hanging out on the other side of the fence near where my garden should be….that still needs to be worked on. But at least now I have a friend to keep me company when I do get to work.

Project Update
I finally hooked another two rows on my rug. Yipee!!
