Second Birthday

 

Uncle Pat came over for dinner on Elizabeth's birthday which prompted a sort of second birthday. We had a feast of leftovers generated from Aunt Cindy's visit (steak and lamb and mashed potatoes from her dinner with Mom at fancy-schmancy Jake's Grill, Thai food from our family get together Sunday night, pizza from Elizabeth's party), then a second serving of the ice cream cake, complete with candles and an off-key rendition of Happy Birthday. Elizabeth was utterly thrilled by it.

In this picture she is asking Pat for help with blowing out the candles. On the first go-round, this afternoon, she asked Riley for help. Although two years old, one candle is about her limit.

Uncle Pat also presented this twelve-inch high robotic Donald Duck (in, inexplicably, an Easter Bunny outfit). Elizabeth is frightened of it. If I can, I'll post a video of the thing soon. No doubt she'll love it, once her fear is overcome.

Happy Birthday, Elizabeth Rose!

Last Gasp of Summer

Sunset the first night.   It's been a good summer, but certainly more constrained than usual due to the COVID-19 pandemic...
