Birthday Celebrations

Michael came over for a birthday lunch in late August. 
In lieu of cake, we had Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia ice cream, Michael's favorite. 
These candle holders have been around a LONG time. 
Somewhere along the line, the giraffe went missing.

Late in September we got together to celebrate three birthdays

The grandchildren wanted to know if I got the idea from Pinterest. 
I told them I'd been doing this before the inventors of Pinterest were even born! 
(Well, maybe not quite that long.)

The checkerboard birthday cake - loaded with traditions - 
animal candle holders & music box that plays "Happy Birthday."
Our family has been using such music boxes since I was very young.

HAPPY BIRTHDAYS!
