Kathleen is "65"

Happy happy birthday Kathleen, the sun is shining brightly and I hope it's shining on you too! That would be Kathleen in front looking sexy!! That must be where Presley (youngest granddaughter) gets it! It's also Blair's birthday (her daughter). What a birthday present was she!! I woke up this morning at 7:45 a.m....church starts at 8:30, and my eyes were matted shut! Decided to take my meds and go back to bed. I just woke up about 15 minutes ago, and my eyes aren't much better, but I'm hoping some drops and they will clear up a bit. I don't know if it was because I sat outside all afternoon at the grad party in a shaded cool (relatively) area of their heavily wooded yard. Or if it's the fact that I put on eyeliner for the first time in over a year.....or maybe a combination of the two. Anyway, I didn't make church, and will have to get dressed and go to the other grad party this morning. It is from 10-2....so I think I'll make it by 11 or so. Yesterday, I left the cabin about 12:30, and then stopped at Costco to pick up pictures I took at the cabin before I left, and a chicken for meals this week. Then went to Target and got a grad card for today, pillows and cushions for the cabin (luckily they were on sale for 30% of, and some filters for my water pictures at the cabin. I can never walk out of Target or Costco with just one thing!! When I got home and was unloading the car, my neighbor Sharyl Boes, came over to see how I was doing, and ended up coming in and visiting for about an hour. I got to share pictures of Emily's graduation, and the cabin with her, and she showed me some pictures of her grandson that she had on her phone. She left and I jumped in the shower and got dressed to go to Alex Aase's grad party. Marilyn and Rob have moved into a new house this last year, and it is gorgeous. Not only is the house gorgeous, but the yard is as well. It is fully landscaped with flowers and a water fall and pond with gold fish! When I arrived, only Jim and Ann were there from my family, but I got to say hello to Kristin, Marilyn's sister who had been my student worker at the college for about 6 years. I even went to her wedding. She became a great photographer and has taken all the pictures I have hanging on my living room wall of the family. Anyway it was fun to actually see her in person and not on Facebook. I then made my way to the backyard where Jim and Ann were, but they had just gone up to the garage to get food, and so I ended up sitting with a couple of girls who we soon figured out were friends of Nicole and Katie. As the time went on, Jim and Ann came back, Chris Boes and Chris Nestin and his wife joined me....soon Jack and Nick, then Bill and Kim, Katie and Tommy, then Annie, Doug and the girls....don't know where Matthew was, but he was the only one missing. Annie had been at the State Track meet with her Blaine HS girls, and was really pleased that all 6 of the girls ended up placing in State. I'm starting to feel like I'm awake, and think it will be a good day! How could it not be when it's both Kathleen and Blair's birthday. Double love to both of them. Oh Happy Day! Love and Prayers, m
