Today...

(Jacob taking a nap)

Today is Andy's Birthday.

I painted him a small picture of nature things and

I took him out to lunch at one of our favorite Japanese restaurants

(we love the bento box lunches there).

I of course forgot to take photos, so maybe I will take a photo of the painting tomorrow...

Anyway, here are some cute photos from yesterday.

Poesy loves rosemary (of which we have many)

so I clipped her a branch and she went to town dismantling it.

Good bird!

It is such a great plant for the respiratory system and seeing as birds have sensitive respiratories it is a great thing for her to snack on!

Veda's beard is getting a bit unruly!

I think it is time for one of the (maybe) 4 baths/haircuts she gets a year...

We still have our tree up.

traditionally it stays up until around february.

I LOVE having a tree in the house,

it smells so good!

I wish it didn't cost so much to have a live one each year and then plant it,

so until I have an excess of cash I will honor the cut ones we get each year.

Hope you have a nice night!
