Twin Birthdays!!!

[lavendertook]

Happy Birthday to two very wonderful hobbit folk, my dear friend jan_u_wine and addie71!!! I hope it is a fine one and you have a great long birthday weekend! Here's some pretties and critters in your honor I saw the past week:


Mountain laurels--opening a little late this year due to our cold rainy May until this week.


A very mellow frog I saw today who wanted to send birthday greetings along.




A male skink, who made it through this winter, and probably another as well.


A female skink who made it through the winter.


A snapper turtle sunning--not a huge one, but probably about a foot long shell.


Two intertwined water snakes hanging out together.


A rat snake who was hanging out across the pathway today.


Roses by the Youth Center near the lake, because you both should have roses.

good morning and thank you for the lovely post.......(you know I love those frogs n skinks and......other (oy!!!) critters! And I plopped the roses into a vase, with a sprig of mountain laurel to keep company)

it was a perfectly mixed bag of a day......the first part was lovely and the second part not--as-much-so. In other words, life happened, as it always does.

Have a lovely moot, dear, and thank you for the greetings.

Happy birthday, belated, to Mz. Addie!

OK, I'm guessing snakes aren't on your list of favorites--I'll try to remember for next time. But we both love those skinks and froggies and pretty flowers. (-:

Bleh on the second part--the day had no right to devolve on you like that--you are owed a great year now! *hugs you*

Thank you--your well wishes certainly worked.

oh, the devolution of the day was a doozy, lmtu! Ugh.

So glad that the posse had such a wonderful time! Warms my heart!

I am soon sorry your birthday got sabotaged. So not right when you should be cherished. *cherishes you*

We did--I'm glad some of the warmth flows on. (-:
