Happy birthday to me (9/21)

I didn't want to have anything to do with this birthday-just wanted to forget how old I was!
But I must admit I was pleased when I got this bouquet from my lovely niece, Megan.( Thank you, Megan.) Then my friend and photographer, Steve, showed up for our photo shoot, Tuesday,
with two bottles of wine and some chocolates. The bad thing was ,Tuesday was his birthday, which I knew, but was trying so hard to forget mine that I forgot his.
On my real birthday, Sunday, Nancy and I went to dinner with our cousin, Erin and her husband who were in California for a wedding. They live in Illinois. So it's been a nice few days even though I haven't been able to forget my birthday. I also got three books
from Nancy that I've been wanting to read.

Here's the winning ticket!
And I only put in $20 worth of pennies.


We also had a very nice free buffet dinner, courtesy of some high-rolling friends.
Thanks Sherry and Kevin.
