My hummingbirds

My hummingbirds have been really out in the last few days. All day long!!  Yesterday I found these  itty bitty mason jar hummingbird feeders and had to hang them up. They love them!! I also found a little hummingbird swing at Home Depot and I had to get that too. Within an hour of putting it up, one was swinging on it and I actually captured it :).

I had a great birthday yesterday. I went to the park in the morning and took a long walk. It looks like I'm the only one there in the picture below but it was actually very crowded with walkers, runners, etc. Then I came home and layed out in the sun for about an hour and read my kindle. It was so hot, I think it got close to 87 degrees so I didn't last too long outside. Kids came over around 4 and we grilled out teriyaki steaks, had air fried potatoes, and asparagus. For dessert, we had a Frozen Sundae Birthday cake and it had 4 different flavors. My fave was the Banana Split. It tasted just like it! YUM!!!  It was a wonderful day!!

You're a Bright Spot in my World

As we enter into Phase 2 in NC, hubby and I decided to go out to Lowe's to look for some butterfly bushes. We could not believe the traffic was so much heavier, the parking lot was packed ... everyone did have their masks on and I even saw someone I knew that I hadn't seen in about 10 years!!

Today is my birthday. Kids are coming over tonight to grill out teriyaki steak and I picked out an ice cream cake at Publix that has 5 different flavors. It's also my daughter's boyfriend's birthday too so we will celebrate together. He's 29 today. A lot younger than me!! LOL
