Happy Birthday Poppy and Eowyn - and several outings

 

We went hiking with family (and extended family)
Bilbo found a baby turtle, which he brought home.
He also has 2 frogs.

We went hiking at Tower Hill

At the top of tower hill they used to make lead shot. Very interesting .

Cousins!

We went to Little Amerricka with family

Happy 12th Birthday, Poppy!! Rosie made a delicious angel food cake. I planned to make homeade whip cream but there was no heavy whipping cream in the store, no joke! So I had to buy a spray foam whip cream.  

We had hail.

We went on a Pilgrimage to St. Anne's in Plain  for the Blessed Mother's Birthday. We said the Stations on the way up with the Rosary decades between the Station. There is a lovely chapel at the top of the hill where we prayed together.

Marigold and Poppy are taking an art class locally. The first week was great fun.  They are looking foward to the next couple months. Each week they study a different medium. This week they did collages. They were very interesting!

Happy birthday... to none of these... 😂

Happy 23rd birthday, Eowyn!!!

Three Stooges.

We made homemade fish tacos. Best recipe!!! Found this HERE  We used tilapia. It is oven baked but very moist. There is a special sauce plus lots of toppings: purple cabbage, tomatoes, cilantro, cheese,... and I added some mango salsa all on lightly toasted white tortillas. SO good.

Not meant to be a selfie... but a mirror we were asking someone if they wanted.

We were heading over to the neighbors, who moved away, to haul away the last remaining items in their house to St. Vincent's or the dump. Someone thought she should come along. 😂

Last haul! Looking forward to meeting our new neighbors!
