April 3, 2010....Saturday.....recently, we had Spring Breakers at our house....Tommy, Carol and Jud....they escaped the frozen north and we were glad to see them....while they were here, we celebrated Carol's birthday.....
.. ...this is a Tutti Fruitty cake....Ray told me it was Carol's childhood favorite....it was actually Ray's favorite but Carol loved it too....first three layer cake I have ever made.....very good....everything totally from scratch the old Southern way.....
.......we walked off the cake out at Robinson Preserve.....beautiful place......
....no celebration is complete without backyard sitting.....J and Ray did some music for us....
.......on to a favorite place to eat....Star Fish Deck.....fried grouper....cheese grits.....hushpuppies....there are none better......
.......cocktails aboard Passages....with sunset included.....
.....we really enjoyed our visitors and now they are safely back home.....next....more Spring Breakers....a dangerous group they are......
.......J and Robin took their Sea Dog hopeful, Buddy, out to sail for the first time....then before they had been out long, we got a call...."We left all my pots and pans and Buddy's dog biscuits....can you bring them out to us?".....well, but of course!!....no novice Sea Dog can learn the Sea Dog ropes without dog biscuits....and no Captains can sail their ship long with no pan to cook the chicken in.....right?....Robin did also ask for the tea pot....I forgot that and didn't remember she had requested that until the next day....but we were able to see Buddy in action boarding the dingy from the deck of Passages and seeming to love it....
.......wading in the water coming ashore to do his business....
.......he probably would have taken to it
without the dog biscuits.....
......there the boy is....safely back on board.....waiting for one of those biscuits his Mom just picked up from his Aunt Terrie.....and Congratulations to our niece, Lindsay and her daughter, Livi....Lindsay has just taken her first position as a Speech Pathologist......Spring Break has been good......Ray and Dee had to have skin tumors and lesions removed....but the pathology reports are back and there are no malignancies....they are doing very well....thank you for all the checking on them....we appreciate it.....celebrations...... emergencies averted.....
