practicing for fall/winter

The kids came across the bag with warm weather gear. Despite just finishing winter it never got cold enough to break out the gloves and fleece hats. They had fun pretending to live in the Arctic. I especially liked the scarf backpack for her baby doll.

Soon we'll be trying on bathing suits :)

A great birthday

Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes. Not that I love the number 41 but it was nice to celebrate. Heck it great to get another birthday and know that I have more to come. We had a nice birthday weekend- carnival at the school, made one of my favorite meals (yes chicken enchiladas), a nice picnic lunch, .... lots of togetherness. Michael bought me an aboriginal painting that we've been stalking for months (OK maybe I was the only one stalking the gallery).
