I woke up late, for me, at 8:30 a.m., and Lady was still snoozing next to my bed. I had a very leisurely morning, and went to Joe and Sarah's for Keira's 1st birthday.
Donald made the cake. It was three layers, a chocolate, a vanilla, and a marble, with a butter cream frosting under the orange outer layer of fondant. Perfection!
Here are some shots from the party.
And a few more - One is a photo of Sarah's mom and brother, and another is of Arianna from the back. She was tinkerbell, and looked so cute from behind I just had to include that photo. One photo is of the birthday girl with her very own cake, and another is a picture of the two older girls "helping" her eat it.
I got home about 6:00 pm and walked Lady. As soon as we came back home (and she got her treats, of course) I changed into warm pajamas and fleece robe. It's only 57F but for some reason I am cold. Cold and very tired. No stretching for me tonight - I'm going to be in bed early!
- Ruth's Birthday Party
The original plan for yesterday was to head to Valle de Bravo. But when our friends Paco and Oti found out that it was Ruth's birthday, they insisted on helping us celebrate! So we stayed in Toluca for one more day. Oti took off from work early, and...

Arianna had her 5th birthday party today - this is the birthday girl with Grandma: (click to enlarge) And this is Grandma with all her California kiddies: Donald grilled hamburgers and several kinds of sausages and brats, and there were wonderful...
- Sunday Rest
But only for part of the day, as I'm planning a visit to the gym this evening. With not much to write about today, I took a couple of photos of the sorts of things I find when my grandchildren are here. Note that two of them are able to write,...
- Resting Up
I don't know why but one day I can accomplish things or go out, and the next day I just like to vegetate. So today, after the party, I am vegetating. I have errands to run and should get to them before the last minute Christmas rush, but I just couldn't...
