Birthdays... there's just something about them that perk you up, make you smile...
Last Saturday, the Dietz and Bice clans gathered together to celebrate all the August birthdays in the two families. There must be 6 of them scattered over the month.
Of course, the focus was on the youngest, Lucy turning 8 and Char will be 7. They were so excited but so patient!
The food was yummy...
and the cakes for the girls just the flavor each of them wanted. Lucy's was chocolate, Char's vanilla.
The excitement of Char opening her first gift was contagious. That little girl was ecstatic over her Pinkie Pie Pony hoodie. You can tell, can't you?
I managed to find one lone egret sitting on a dead tree over a hundred yards away. You know me... I had to get a picture.
Being in the atmosphere of four generations gathered for a joyous occasion made me stop and count my blessings. I've lived most of my life, some of them following not so far behind, some are young with their lives spread before them and the little ones... it all is out there to be learned, experienced and enjoyed.
The house was filled with love and kindness, with gracious hosts seeing that we all had a day to be remembered always.
