birthday's come and go...

For my birthday this year we took the laid back approach. James got me a new camera and surprised me with it when he came home from work. And after dinner we went for ice cream at Amy's ( an Austin classic) and strolled around the Arboretum looking at the ducks and the pond. It was really nice and stress free. On the way home James had Gwen saying cow the whole time, and whenever we tried to get her to sing a song or say something else she put her finger to her mouth and said Shhh. What can you do? I forgot my camera in the car while we were walking around so we took this one when we got home. So birthdays come and go but to get James to go on a walk with us...now that is something special.

Lonna!! Happy Birthday! I understand the birthdays coming and going they seem to get less and less interesting every year. I hope that you had a great birthday though! Love and miss you! Kelly Clark

I am glad you were able to spend time with James and Gwen. Families are what is important! And Ice Cream. Who could ask for a better day??

Lonna,
Happy birthday! I agree that it a very cute picture of you and Gwen. I am glad James made it fun, even though birthdays have lost some of their magic at this age. Did you say James took a walk with you? Because that is something on Ryan's 'never in the mood for' list too, for the last 5 years! Now there is something to celebrate.
