Happy Birthday JoJo

JoJo turned 6 yesterday....WOW...we took her to the Rain Forest Cafe for dinner and she was so surprised when they came out with this cake...she looked at her mom and said "is this for me?"...what a wonderful time we had...she said "this is the best day ever!"... Grandchildren can certainly melt your heart!!

Turkey

Not the best picture but given that it was raining big time and i was in such a hurry to get a shot before this bird took flight (yes, turkeys do fly)i think it is pretty good....what a surprise...we were eating supper when Mike yells "look at that"...thought he was referring to maybe a bunny or the male cardinals that like to frequent the bird feeders...boy was i excited...grabbed the camera and ran out onto the deck...he jumped the bushes into the neighbor's yard...hope he comes back with his family...
