Day 2 at the house on the hill.

Very quiet, almost spa-like. Up at 7:45 am.

Cooler in the morning, Laker laid in the dirt for warmth. 

Zoey laid on the pavers.

I sat in the sun and started to read a new book. 

Tomorrow: The Tale of Despereaux

 

Today: Winn Dixie by Kate DiCamillo

  

I got too warm in the sun and moved to the outdoor couch.

The shade was cool so I got a throw for warmth.

When the granddogs warmed up, they joined me. 

 Written in 2000, it is a wonderful book for kids and adults.

I read the entire book in an hour fifteen minutes and 

I loved every second. I read another of her books last week.

I wish I could have read it to WW 40 years ago.

Tonight's sunset at 8:10 pm. It went down fast.

I hope you had a nice day too. 

 

Meanwhile, there will be celebrating at the river! 
Happy 21st Birthday, Jake! Grandhunk #2.

Twenty-one years ago today, 
I was blessed to be present when baby Jake was born, 

almost 8 pounds, 21 inches & very healthy!

We were all so thrilled!

 So many memories ...

and time goes by so quickly.

Today, a few blinks later Jake, (Grandhunk #2) is now 21, 6'3"!

Celebrating with SM, WW, Brothers and buddies at Lake Havasu.

Happy 21st Birthday Jake!

We all love you!
