Yesterday, we celebrated Noah's 12th birthday in fine style in Jamie and Amy's shaded, woodsy back yard. We shared some good conversations, some tasty tacos and burritos prepared by Amy, and helped young Noah feel special on his special day.

Fun shopping on Amazon coming up!

Today is a lazy Sunday for us, a "day of rest" -- as if we needed one! Church this morning, then a visit for muffins to the Lighthouse Bakery (where we were cordially waited on by the Iranian owners), and now, as I'm writing, an afternoon inside by the fan for some silent reading together.
