I left my camera out on a shelf near a high traffic area in the house. When I decided I should post (because it's been almost a month), I thought I'd download the pictures on the camera to see what has happened for the last 30 days. Besides the few photos I took there were now a bunch of movies on the camera.

Emma had grabbed it first and taken movies of the cats, her room and one of her singing while showing the room. I'll have to see if I can put that one on this site.

Dave had mistakenly taken two movies of a model he built, thinking he was just taking photos, not knowing that Emma had switched the camera on to movie mode and never changed it back.

From the photos you will see that we got to light the candles on Dave's cake.

I took a picture of the beautiful little iris type flowers that came up from bulbs, even though snow is covering them now, they are still here. I placed my ring next to the flowers to show the scale. They are tiny.

The mandala is a jigsaw puzzle that I bought for $5.00 at the art museum. It really was fun to put together. It took a couple of days and I got to study the details in the mandala, like the different modes of life it conveyed. This was the first round jigsaw puzzle I have done.
