happy birthday to me!

a great day to be sure.  family, good food, and beautiful weather.  i was busy having a good time so i only took a few pictures...

the only shot i got of everyone looking at the camera (sorry kathryn---i think it's kind of cute though)

staal grilled some burgers and mama brought some homemade cookies and a beautiful salad.

and here's a 36th-birthday-selfie for historical reference...

the blossoms popped open just after everyone left (sorry trish)

thanks for a wonderful day, everyone!
