This weekend, my husband turned the big Six Two! (I, being a mere one year over the half century mark, don't mind announcing this to the world). We had a great family celebration. His children and grandchildren came up from Miami. The girls rode bikes up and down our long driveway, despite intermittent sprinkles. Abby still has her training wheels on, but it won't be long now! 
She is participating in some kind of a bike rodeo at school this week where the kids raise money for St. Jude's hospital. Abby donated all of the money in her family's change jar, over $35. to St. Jude's! We were very proud of her for being so thoughtful. Haley was working hard to keep up on her trike.
Abby has inherited some of her grandpa's gardening genes. Her Mom calls her Diggy, because she loves to dig in the dirt!
She and Grandpa planted some tomatoes, and checked on the progress of the beans they planted last time.
The girls have thier own tools and gardening gloves...too cute!
Then, we played endless games of Candyland when the rain started falling more heavily.
Our best friend made a HUGE pan of lasagna and a beautiful bread braid. We had a great cake made to look like a Chikee hut, and we all wore leis to sing Happy Birthday!
