So many May birthdays!


Mya will be 3 on Cinco de Mayo.  Last year, she stayed with us a few days before her second birthday.  She LOVES onions.  Notice Papa Bear's legs in the grass.


Otis will be 3 on May 8th, his Daddy's birthday and Mother's Day this year!


Skyler will be 29 on May 8th.  His exciting news:  he's working weekdays for Asplundh, but tattooing on Saturdays at Angel Ink in Oregon City, just outside Portland.  Congrats, Skyler!



Anjanette will be 23 on May 12th.  Here she is tossing coins over her shoulder into the fountain at Mandola's.  I wonder what she wished for?


Al's big day is May 15th.  He looks happy already!



Destry will be 17 on May 17th.  Isn't it the Golden Birthday when your age and birth date are the same?  (Destry was born on Syttende Mai, Norwegian Constitution Day. )*

* Our family lived in Stavanger, Norway, in the early 1970s and celebrated Syttende Mai every year.  In fact, my first day ever in Norway, at the age of 20, was on Syttende Mai.  I arrived at the Oslo train station from Copenhagen and thought it was Norwegian Mardi Gras!
