Oh, what a nice birthday weekend I had. French pastries for breakfast, a woods-walk, pretty flowers, macaroni and cheese at Jake's Grill, a waxing moon-rise from the front yard, a glowing cakelet for dessert, a wish, a movie under quilts, Sunday games with my family, sweetest cards and calls and presents. Thank you for all of your sweet wishes! What a wonderful birthday it was.

What a wonderful way to spend your birthday! I love your little cake so much - or is it the stand I love...or the little flags?
Well, love it is. Happy one.
It does all sound very nice, how lovely. I'm so glad you had such a nice day. May your whole year be as happy.
Wonderful! I love your woodsy walk photos, they always make me want to get out of the house and hit the trail.

Looks like a very busy, but wonderful time! What a gift that moon stunning moon was! Of course I equally love the pink flowers, the lights of the city and the wet, mossy forest!
