The Birthday Girl is 3






The birthday girl, Madison Marie Card.





My grand-daughter had her 3rd birthday party at Kidsville in Poway. What fun. Everybody in stocking feet and the whole village is kid-sized. Costumes galore along with a fire station, grocery store, theatre, pizza joint, boat, tree, beauty salon and all the pink iced cupcakes you can eat.



OK, this is not a real dog. It is a toy dog in a toy carrier. That must make backyard cleanup a breeze.






This is Madison's brother, the Amazing Spiderman, aka Gavin.




And the big brother, Hunter.

I should probably mention that Maddy had her hair done especially for this occasion. Yeah, Hunter and Gavin took turns with the scissors and a whack here and there and of course, the bangs (thus the askance barrett) and she had a new "do". Her mama just about flipped. Hmmm, I still have the photo of my sister after I cut her hair the day before "Picture Day" in the 2nd grade. It must run on the father's side of the family. Hee-Haw.

Tricycle Envy




Take a look at this beauty. There was about 1/4 of a million bucks wrapped up in 5 motorcycles parked next to my favorite breakfast restaurant this morning. They were all gorgeous. One, in particular, caught my eye. I could never ride/drive a motorcycle. But I bet I could ride that fancy trike made by Honda. Take a look at the tricked out dashboard with all the gadgets.

Bad Moon Rising


Bad moon rising. Creedence Clearwater could not have said it better.

Tomorrow is full moon.

But this was a somewhat spooky moon.

My life has changed in the last couple of years - some bumps, I retired from quilting, and then I moved to Texas. I'm anxious to see what new adventures await me in the next phase of my life.
