Burfday Fun

This weekend we had some birthday fun, celebrating 60 years on earth for Wes. Some little birdy let the cat out of the bag, so lots of folks joined in the fun.

 The fun really got started Friday night at the Annual Pardner's Banquet for the Agape PRC in Round Rock, held annually at the TDS Pavilion and Game Preserve. Here we are joined by Don & Debbie Bebee, Dan & Linda Jacobson, and Boyd & Danae Bush. Our entertainment was Dennis Swannberg. We did some laughing!

 Wes got to start his Saturday off the way he likes it; strong coffee, feeders full, camera ready. It helped that a cool front came through for comfort!

 I caught him out in the yard trying to catch a Cardinal in the Possum Haw. No luck today.

 Even had friends dropping by to bring birthday cards. Wes likes to refer to Karen Stump as his long-lost sister.

 Then to our favorite local haunt Dahlia's for a larripin' breakfast of a Liberty Hill omelet and sweat cream pancake. MMMmmmm good!

 It was a special treat to join old old friends Tommy and Robin Tollett at River City Grill's deck in Marble Falls for fish tacos. Good times.

 Wes finally paused long enough in his busy day to have a bite of the banana nut cake (his mom's recipe!) that I prepared that morning. Yes, that is sheer delight you see in his eyes.

 Then set him down in front of a new edition of Birds&Blooms and you have a happy camper.

And the winner is...! So many wonderful cards. Lower left is a custom-created and hand-made card from Linda Swayze that was just over the top good. Many laughs, some tears, but all appreciated. I am very thankful for my wonderful husband, his birth, and his life!
