Mom's 94 Birthday

We celebrated Jim's mom's 94 birthday yesterday with her favorite meal; fried chicken, mashed potatoes and country gravy, corn on the cob (cut off the cob for her), fresh fruit salad, and angel food cake with strawberries and home made icecream.  Umm!  Good thing we don't eat that way every day!!!  Jim's two sisters and brother were there on Mom'e beautiful deck celebrating with us.  Two night ago, we had cousins, wifes, and the Allen family at Gerry's house for a BBQ of salmon. 
 

The weather is still remaining in the 80s.  You can't beat it!  We are surrounded by acres of horse ranches.  In fact, the next door neighbor is a professional wildlife photographer, and she and her husband drive hundreds of miles looking for wild horses to photograph.  Didn't know wide horses still existed, did you?  Her work is amazing and sells on eBay.  If you like horses, Arvada, CO is the place.  Maybe I'll go riding one day.

Got out my oil paints and plan to see if I still have the ability to capture flowers and scenery on canvas.
