opening weekend

One of my favorite weekends of the year will soon be here!  It's the one where we send the men and older children off to walk the fields and trees in search for birds we have no desire to eat.  While they do that, I get to relax with the women, who have the much better gig-- coffee, sweet treats, conversation and shopping!

It's always a nice little break in the fall.  We will have our Melius birthday bash on Sunday, too.  It's time to celebrate family, friends and our birthday blessings.

I can't wait.
