Phil's 68th Birthday

Our eldest daughter made it home for her Dad's birthday. After a dinner of the birthday boy's choosing, he opened presents with a little help from the boys.

Happy Easter!

The boys and their stuffed friends wish everyone a very Happy Easter and meaningful Passover.  Notice the orange tree in the background.  As soon as the chance of frost is over, it will be moved outside so the bees can do their work and we will have more oranges!

"Shack" group

I found that several friends had read "The Shack."  We got together for lunch to discuss the thought provoking and  inspiring book.  We also managed a little "girl" talk too. The boys made an appearance and left since they are not into heady theological discussion nor "girl" talk.

39th Wedding Anniversary

Phil and I celebrated our 39th Wedding Anniversary today.  We went out to eat at a nice restaurant and then on to hear the Academy of Ancient Music perform at the UGA Performing Arts Center.  They performed all of the Brandenburg Concertos.  It was a delightful evening.  The concert was long, so the boys were awfully glad to see us when we returned home.

Scissor-happy husband

Roy got some pine tar on his blaze, so his Dad got the scissors to cut the stickies out and then got scissor-happy.  My frustrated hair-dresser then proceeded to trim Andy and Roy's blaze.  You can see the results in the picture.  : (

Bird Bath

For Christmas, Marian gave me a "bird bath."  Would you believe that after all our really cold weather, we ate brunch on the porch today in February!??  I got to turn on my bird bath which is now happily living on the porch dining table.  It gurgles and tinkles like a real fountain.
