Babies & Birthdays

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday.
The Holiday was full of Babies and Birthdays.
I went to Creede, Colorado to see my family. My parents retired up there and live in a cabin in the small town.

My sister flew in from California with my 8 month old nephew, Jeremiah. They named him after the mountain man Jeremiah Johnson, a movie with Robert Redford. So I have the little soundtrack song on my IPhone I like to play for him when I see him.
Here he is:


Jen and her new little family are doing great. They had some 1 week old pictures taken to make into Christmas cards:

I had a birthday yesterday.
I'm starting to really dislike birthdays.
I've never really been fond of growing a year older, even as a little girl, but now as I get ever closer to the big 3-0 I get antsy about where I am in life. I had a depressing evening last night. It was a long day at work, very busy after being gone for a week, and I had a headache & my stomach hurt. I decided instead of the big night out in Tulsa I had originally planned, I stayed in town and Joe took me to Chilis, then we went home and vegged out.
The less I acknowledge the passing birthday means it doesn't really happen right?
Well, a few women at work also have birthdays over the past week, so all of us are celebrating a combined birthday at the Casino this Friday.
I'll acknowledge I'm 28 only with a few shots in me, and my girlfriends cheering me on.
