Happy Birthday to me!
I had a great birthday today, and a great weekend! First of all, last Friday Cindy and I went to Portland to attend the Creating Keepsakes Scrapbook Convention. On Friday night we went to Beaverton to visit a guy who is a consultant for the co-op. We got to meet Wayne's wife and kids. They bbq'd us ribs and veggies. They were very good. Christine made us strawberry margaritas and brownies too. Then on Saturday we went to the convention and took a 2 hour class called "In the box" with S.E.I. We did a full album in the class, and it was a lot of fun. I loved the way it turned out.
Then after the class, we decided to go ahead and leave for Lincoln City to see Mel. We got there about 5:00. We stopped at 2 scrapbook stores and then headed up to see Mel. He was glad to see us. Since Cindy wanted clam chowder for dinner, we headed to Newport and ate at the Sizzler. It was so good. Then when we got back into town Mel drove around and showed Cindy some different things in town. We visited awhile and finally fell asleep about 11:30 or so.
Yesterday we got up and headed down to the Chinook Winds Casino for the breakfast buffet. After we ate Mel and Cindy both gambled a little. I only watched, & pushed the button every once and awhile for Mel. Mel came out ahead, and Cindy just donated some money.
When we were done there, we drove around some and then went down on the beach. We found a lot of agates. Mel showed Cindy what to look for, and she found quite A few. It was a Beautiful morning, and no wind or rain. Cindy and I finally left after noon and headed home. I pulled into the driveway right at 6pm.
Then today I got a call and birthday song from mom and Dad and Mel before I went to work. Jenny & the boys called me at work and told me happy birthday. Kaeden said it real fast. Tammy & Quintin came in right before lunch and brought me a beautiful bouquet of flowers in a neat porcelain watering can with a Thomas Kincade picture on each side. The card was signed "Love, Jared, Tammy, Aaron, Quintin & baby to be"...yep, just this morning Tammy took a pregnancy test and it came back positive. She was sick all weekend.
Tammy & Quintin went with Cindy, Josie, Lynda & I to the Panda Inn for lunch. Then after work Jared, Tammy & Quintin took me to USA Subs for dinner. I then went with them to 60 Minute photo and they had a photo shoot with Rosie. I am anxious to see the pictures.
After that I went to Bunco. I didn't win, but had fun. They gave me a brownie with a candle in it, and sang happy birthday to me.
When I got home I talked to Pam for 89 minutes. I sure miss her and love talking to her. I don't do it often enough, but we are both busy.
Well, here are some updated pictures, and so long for now.
