Be careful what you wish for. Grand daughter Shelby made the statement while we were on vacation in Destin celebrating her 10th birthday that it would be fun to get hit in the face with a pie on your birthday. At her birthday party today at home with extended family, she got the surprise of her life when her dad mashed a cream pie into her face. She was a bit shocked and stunned but took it in stride with good humor. This is one birthday party she'll never forget.
We had what you call a gully washer around lunch time today, not to mention some pretty fierce lightning and thunder, which was cracking over my head while I was out on my back porch, taking this picture of the rain water gushing out the gutter. The rain is welcome right now. I know others need it badly, too. Hope they get some soon.
A few random photos of back yard faces, flowers, and reflections. Happy TGIF, everyone!
Finally, some rain this afternoon. Things are starting to get crispy in my back yard.
