Day Three Hundred Sixteen 2013

HAPPY 37TH BIRTHDAY, KELLY!

IMG_2101
Daughter Kelly celebrated her [hot pink!] 37th birthday today [and it snowed today just as it did 37 years ago which added a nice touch to the celebration]. We enjoyed a fun party at Kelly and Kerry and Knox’s new/old house with yummy cake, ice cream, and punch [and presents of course]. I wonder how long it’s been since that hundred year old house has heard that many loud voices and so much laughter. Wishing our snow baby a happy birthday and a wonderful life filled with lots of love and many many more good time celebrations. Your dad and I love you!!

Day Sixty One 2013

Ever Lovin Saturday
IMG_8807
We’ve had some snow here, starting this past Thursday.
IMG_8809
It started coming down again late last night.
IMG_8810
We got maybe an inch. Maybe.
IMG_8811
Really pretty. We don’t get big snows any more. I miss those. But we’ll take what we can get.
IMG_8816
A bird in hand is worth four in the bush. Inflation, you know. I think these are waiting their turn at the feeders.
IMG_8818
Since daughter Kelly and grandson Knox are visiting this weekend, Neil made yummy blueberry waffles for (a late) breakfast.
IMG_8823
His blueberry waffles are the best. Did I say they are yummy? They are.
IMG_8838
Grandson Knox didn’t care for any waffles. He just wanted to take his socks off.
IMG_0146
We went to Starbucks for some coffee (what else?), squeezed in at a little table by the window, all cozied up next to about ten other people, and watched it snow. There’s something about Starbucks that just makes you want to kick back.
IMG_0148
And fall asleep in Grandpa’s lap. Not even the aroma of caffeine could keep him awake at this point.
IMG_0149
The proverbial blanket of snow, sliding off the hood of the car into fluffy white folds. It snowed again tonight and replaced all that was lost with a fresh blanket.
IMG_8845
Neil finally got to celebrate his birthday this evening. He turned 62 on February 28, but due to other stuff happening in the family, we postponed the party until a more opportune moment which turned out to be tonight.
IMG_8847
Happy Birthday, honey/hubby Neil! We enjoyed cake and ice cream and punch and a whole lot of chatter and laughter, as always when our family gets together. (Not that there’s always cake and ice cream and punch but that would be nice.)
IMG_8854
And Neil enjoyed lots of cool cards and great gifts, which as you can see, he gave a thumbs up. Fun party. Worth the wait. Let’s do it all over again next year.
Happy Saturday, everyone!

Day Three Hundred Fifty One 2012

HAPPY 34TH BIRTHDAY, HOLLY!
img040
My daughter Holly celebrated her 34th birthday today. Here she was at the age of one, sitting on her Grandpa Ranft’s lap. They were pretty good buddies, and I know she’ll appreciate this picture because we were just remembering him today and how he always unclipped his clip on tie and hung it from the front of his shirt when he was done with it.
IMG_7855
Happy birthday, dear daughter Holly! So hard to believe our Christmas baby is 34 years old. We wish you all the best of everything today and always. We love you more than you will ever know.

He was not happy to wear his party hat.

Birthday cake tastes pretty good, but I don’t like having it on my fingers.
IMG_7658
Presents!
IMG_7669
He got cute clothes and jammies…..
IMG_5157
and really cool toys to play with. This one tasted good, too, like birthday cake.
IMG_7676
This looks like fun.

Some new wheels for the birthday boy.

Day Three Hundred Four 2012

Happy Birthday, Jane!
IMG_7099
My baby sister Jane celebrated her 51st birthday today. How can that be?? Seems like yesterday she was toddling around in a diaper, a bottle in one hand, a pacifier in the other hand, and another one in her mouth. She’s a blessing to me in so many ways, not only as a sister but also as a friend. Wishing you a happy birthday, Jane! I love you!!
