Weekend Update

It was a beautiful weekend. I could use a few more days like that. Saturday was perfect so what better way to end the day but to go to a backyard BBQ. My friend Larry was having a few friends over to celebrate 100 years. He and his partner, Barry are both 50 years old this year. What a perfect way to celebrate. (BTW their backyard is actually 10 acres.)

And it's full of gorgeous flowers, trees and plants. Iris is one of my favorite flowers.

And he has a few land creatures like this one...

And probably one of my most favorite flowers ever...the white peony.

And as the sun went down it got a little chilly outside. Someone got the fire pit going to warm things up. And then someone threw a dead pine tree on it.

Here's the proof of why Christmas trees are so dangerous....

All in all it was a great weekend. Other than my crazy niece got hit in the head with a baseball bat and ended up in the emergency room. She's fine and now has a goose egg the size of Michigan and 10 stitches in her head. Ah... the good life.
