Beautiful Flowers!

Thanks, Denise and Ted!

 

Zio likes them too!

(Yesterday would have been Grandpa Joe's 99th birthday.)

Happy birthday to me

 

We got ice cream at a place where they make it ON THE SPOT with liquid nitrogen.  They have vegan options.   

This is what it looks like when they make it.

Birthday

 

Love this new adult!  She's super fab.  She doesn't like it when I brag about her so I won't mention her academic (including math and science), dance, horse, or musical accomplishments.  Nor will I mention how kind, thoughtful, and responsible she is.  Nope. Not mentioning.  Just trust me, she's super! 

14!!

 

On her birthday, hanging out with a friend, having pizza, and ice cream! (Also an interruption of summer documentation.)

15!!!

Which do you like better?  I can't decide.

Hiking!

Our beautiful hike today.

 

6 miles...we cut the hike a little short b/c we didn’t want to be late picking up girls, just as we got in the car and Nick started driving, the sky opened up. Perfect timing!

Surprise

When your family shows up with balloons with really large numbers on them and surprises you at your tap class... And it's not even your birthday... You start celebrating anyway... Might as well take all the appreciation you can get. I am lucky to have lots of people who love me. I just wish they'd get the age right 'cause that number can't be it.
