Happy Birthday, Lori!

Today is my sister-in-law's birthday! Here she is with some of her favorite neices and nephews. Have a great day, Lori!

Hiking

On Sunday, when the heat in the valley finally let up and the relatives headed home, Nathan wanted to go for a hike. We headed to Beazell Memorial Forest, a pleasant half hour drive south. We've been there several times before and it's just a nice peaceful place. We found a new loop trail and a cute gazebo, both added since our last time there. It was very green and cool and it was nice to move around after the heat that had left us motionless. The new loop trail has several cute bridges. Lucy had a great time, too. Here's my companions:

Happy Birthday, Lisa!

Today is one of my niece's birthdays. Here we are 36 years ago. You can do the math and figure out which significant birthday it is for her. Now she's all grown up and even lives in my town and is a teriffic mom to three cute boys. I got to celebrate with her this weekend and we had a great time. Here's to you, Lisa!
