Sweet Willow Tree figurine from Harris and his folks
This year I was lucky enough to celebrate my birthday for several days.
Practically speaking from Mike
I guess when you turn 57 it takes longer to get all that celebrating done.

The children and Mom met me at a local diner on Saturday evening for dinner and we celebrated with burgers and fries and delicious custard and all the grandchildren and laughter and talking and catching up.

Then, on Sunday, Mike took me out for a nice luncheon where we shared part of an appetizer and each got a big entree and I got a salad and he got veggies and we waddled to the truck with a take-out box of leftovers that we ate the next day for lunch.

On Monday, the girls of my secondary team of coaches shared good wishes and sweet treats of brownies and cupcakes and lemon bars.

Beautiful illustrations by Lydia
Cards and money from Mama and Mrs. O were delivered and appreciated. (Maybe I should have shown a picture of my new truck tires.)

This post features some of the special gifts bestowed upon me in honor of my birthday. I'm looking forward to a cheerful year ahead enjoying each of them.
