After a summer of not getting around to inviting people over for a barbecue, we finally did it on the 15th – the day before B-day. Although it was not supposed to be a birthday-related gathering, Chad spread the word and our friends surprised me with cake, cards, wine, and other goodies. Our combined gaggle of 10 children kept each other entertained while we adults soaked in one of the last summer evenings. It was a lovely birthday. And Chad surprised me with this:
It's my very own maple tree! A little piece of Canada in the backyard. Yay!PS: My list of 40 things to do before turning 40 has been woefully neglected. So far, I've only completed 5, 6, 7, 9, 15, 23, 24, 34, 35, 37, and 39. I'll keep working on it.
