Update on the birds

We are now "empty nesters." Our baby birds "flew the coup!" It all happened so fast! It was so fun for our boys to be able to see the process of the momma bird getting the nest ready, to 4 little eggs, to 4 baby birds and to be able to watch the baby birds grow. We had the ladder set up so they could go look everytime we went into the garage.
Here are the best pictures we could get. Getting a good shot was tricky. In the first one, if you look close enough, you can see an eye.

Happy Birthday to me!
This is the quilt my Mother-in-law made for me for my birthday:

Isn't it marvelous?!
I love to look at it. We hung it in our dining room so we can see it from the couch and while we're sitting at the table.
Looking at it, I wouldn't even know where to start to create something so magnificent. I love it! I love it! I love it!
Thank you Mom!
