Birthday weekend

This past weekend we celebrated another birthday at our home - mine. I had a great time!

First, the 4 of us went into the city for dinner and a show. We were intrigued by the pedestrian area where Broadway has been closed off to traffic at Times Square. Hundreds of lawn chairs have been provided for tourists to sit and watch the lights! We saw "Hair" which was enjoyed by us all.

Second, I received lots of funny and touching cards, phone calls and emails. And flowers from my family! Thank you all!
Third, my parents came down for the weekend and took us out for a delicious dinner at the Chart House in Weehawkin (on the Hudson R). You can't tell in these photos, but our table had a magnificent view of Manhattan so as we enjoyed our dinner we saw the skyscrapers go from daylight, to gray with gold reflections from the setting sun, to black with all their lights. Very pretty. Here's Don, Carolyn and my Mom, followed by Me, Bryan and my Dad.


Fourth, we joined the July birthday babies party on the beach with our other young friends and had a great time! Check out the photos taken here.

And lastly, the celebrations continue this week with friends. Getting older is fun when we do it together.
