A really nice afternoon with Aunt Stephanie, Uncle Greg, Monica & Pete and Wesley.  You, Lexi and Wes had so much fun in the hot tub (unheated but not as cold as the unheated pool!) splashing and cavorting.  We had ribs and yummy sides and a decadent chocolate on chocolate cake.  Lots of little pieces of chocolate that we picked off and ate before the cake was even cut. 

You, mom and Lexi went to the Manatee Fest but there were no manatees around.  The weather is too warm and they like the cold. You picked out a present for me for my birthday while you were there.  It's a beautiful painted shell with a turtle!  I'm keeping it by the front door, using it to keep my keys. So pretty - you know my love for turtles!
