Celebrated a birthday

We took another day off from working in the shop as John's back was a little stiff and we thought it best to give it a rest.  However, he did spend time down there working on picture frames and assembling some paper towel holders from left over parts.  I spent my morning finishing up a few more fair photos and doing some laundry.  We'll be leaving bright and early Monday morning for our trip to Wisconsin and Kentucky, so I'm trying to get all the clothes washed and ready to pack.

Around noon Matt and Sam stopped in to eat lunch and then John took Sam to his orthodontist appointment while Matt returned to the job site.  Once his appointment was done, John drove him back to work before returning home.  The other day I listed our old patio furniture on Craig's List and had several emails about it.  This afternoon one of the people who contacted me about it came to see the set, purchased it on the spot, and hauled it away.

Today was Julie's 8th birthday, so after supper we headed up to JD's place to celebrate with some cake and ice cream.  Jo's parents were in attendance also, so we were able to spend a very pleasant evening visiting.  Josh was away at camp this week, so he missed out on the celebration.

  I tried to talk Julie into sharing this gift

with me, but it was no go.
