It's my birthday today

Today is my birthday.  I have not done anything special yet as it's still morning, but doing nothing at all is a luxury.  Not for long though because then I start to think about what needs to be done.  At least I can thank the city for the "don't do laundry or run the dishwasher for a few days." The river is threatening to flood the waste water treatment plant, which if that happens, bad things occur like having to boil water before drinking.  I think we should have gone and visited my family this weekend : )  I'm not sure if I'd want to be gone though, what if water gets in our basement?  It hasn't, yet but what a mess!  It's been so rainy lately, and cold.  I like a quote I saw on Facebook, "Last year we prayed for rain, well God does answer prayers, just not on our timing but his."  Too true.

I feel I have lots to say, but can't think of anything right now!

I know later today, my family is getting our picture taken for the church pictorial book and then we'll go out for dinner.  Kylie is super excited, she wants to go to Houlihan's and get the corndog with strawberries like she had when I took her and my sister there a couple of weeks ago.  Plus she got ice cream with the meal.  I don't know how busy they are on a Friday night but I will call ahead and get a reservation so hopefully not too bad.

Maybe later I'll remember what I was going to post.

 Butterflies are Blooming! Aren't they beautiful? 

 Kylie, Joel, and Chloe watching the Doodlebops.

Chloe, me, and Kylie watching Strawberry Shortcake!  Great show, although the girls were ready to go after an hour.  The show lasted an hour and a half.  Good thing we were in the balcony, the last full row of seats and no one was behind us.
