Birthday party

The kids all got together for my birthday yesterday, which wasn't my birthday but that's the day they could all be there. They even invited ME! All 7 kids were there, plus their significant others/spouses, and grandkids. Becky made delicious fried chicken! There was also mashed potatoes and gravy, corn on the cob, biscuits, jello salad, zucchini cake, and later there was cake and ice cream. I don't know who all made what (Barbara made the zucchini cake) but I think Becky did most of it. It was fun, sitting outside on the grass visiting with everyone!
And of course I have to post another picture of our new baby cat! It curled up on my lap and that's where it is right now! Sometimes she reaches up to try and help me type.

Flowers

I bought flowers and started planting them. First picture is all of them in a box. The ones in the tire have to be protected from the free-range chickens and the deer. I broke the ear on the Lamb planter, have to find my super glue. That's a Celosia in that planter. The last picture is my tulips, which right now are parked in the garden until I figure out a permanant place for them.

Kitten

Never stop to see a friend's kittens, especially when they're old enough that she's starting to give them away.

We brought this one home and now we're trying to name her. We asked the kitten what her name is, and she said "Meow"...

In some lights her eyes look blue, in others they look green or tan/brown.
