My First Birthday Present

Posted on September 12, 2011September 12, 2012 Posted in Family & Friends, LiFeTagged cubs, orange, presents, Trolls1 Comment

My sister Kay sent me my first birthday present of the year which I got in the mail today and went ahead and opened. I LOVE it! I will call him Cub, of course.

This present is made all the better because of my sister’s love of trolls, going way back, and all the stories that go along with them.

Thank you Kay! He’s just what I needed!

The Tower, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl.

After our tubing adventure last Saturday we all went to Edgefield. The McMenamins establishment that’s out in Troutdale. I’ve never seen a group of hungrier women. We were all so famished we could have eaten almost anything. Fortunately, even though they were packed and we had to wait a while to get a table, once we got seated our service was pretty darn good. The beer and the food started flowing almost immediately and we were in heaven.

I did what I do and ran around taking pictures of our yard a couple of nights ago. It was almost too late in the day, light fading and all, but some of them actually turned out OK. Love these flowers. Not even sure what they are, but we have a little patch of them and they are lovely.

I also took this one as we walked back to the truck from the fair. Loved the bright orange in this. Nature is fantastic.

I wonder what’s behind door number 2? Monte Hall… do you know? What if, some day, we just wandered up to it and knocked. Who do you suppose would answer? Strange scientists doing secret experiments? A rock band renting the space getting ready for it’s next international tour? A guy making donuts? Elvis?

Hearth, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl.

This stove was a work horse during our power outage. We were so thankful we had it, and that we had wood to burn. We were very warm and cozy Christmas Day. Not only that, it worked great as a cook surface. Nothing like hot dogs cooked on top of a wood stove to stave off Christmas hunger.

The leaves are almost done changing and they’ve mostly come down. I took this shot of our favorite tree in our yard. This thing is absolutely gorgeous during the change. Spectacular.

Orange, originally uploaded by Tokenhippygirl.

The theme for this week’s hunt is colorful. I was perusing some of the flower pictures I’ve taken and came across this one, a particular favorite of mine. I love the bright orange and green in this. I like it so much in fact that I just made it my header photo. And, a little confession, I posted this already… as my July 25 photo on my photoblog, image – ination.

If you’d like to join in the all the photo hunt fun, check out tnchick for all the details.
