The Colors

Remember my two posts showing the colorful murals of Richmond? Well, murals are not the only color Richmond has. It seems that everything there is colorful!

“A colorful body with fabrics, tattoos and jewelry is attractive, but a colorful heart with love, truth and faith is beautiful.”

This Is Us

The restaurant we all ate at had butcher paper on the table, and crayons. So the little ones could color while they waited. Jazz sat beside me, and drew this picture of us together. I have lovely sharp teeth and long eyelashes!

She also drew this picture of a fish tank that she copied from a coloring paper.

And she wrote me this sweet little note.

I don't understand why Cupid was chosen to represent Valentine's Day. When I think about romance, the last thing on my mind is a short, chubby toddler coming at me with a weapon.

The Birthdays

Tonight we celebrated two birthdays! Our youngest granddaughter and her mom have the same birthday! We went out to eat at a place called The Fishin' Pig.

Melissa ordered fish tacos, and Phil and Mike got brisket sandwiches.

When they brought Jazz's dessert, the staff sang Happy Birthday! She loved it, but was embarrassed a bit.

Then back home to open presents. Here she is hugging a stuffed owl.

I got them both these cute unicorn headbands. Found them at the Dollar Store!

And the two men in my life, husband and son.

Youth is a wonderful thing. What a crime to waste it on children.

A Field Of Crocus

About a week and a half ago, we passed this field of crocus. They had been in full bloom, and were a bit pat their prime. Crocus in the winter!

The crocus reminds us that no matter how harsh the winter, spring always returns.

Three Sizes

I am back! I had been getting the blue screen of death; so the computer place gave me a new hard drive. That was so much cheaper than buying a new computer!

We worked this jigsaw puzzle a few weeks ago. It had THREE different sized pieces! Small, 

 medium, and large, a different size for each snowman. Have you ever seen one like this?

My Computer

My computer is breaking fast. We have to take it into the shop today. We may even have to buy a new one. So I will be without a computer for at least several days, even longer if we have to buy a new one. I hope to see you soon!! ☹

The Rest

Here are the rest of the murals we saw in Richmond. Unlike my last post, most of these seem to be a bit more thoughtful and deep.

No, there is nothing wrong with your eyes, this is how the mural actually looked! I sure wonder what it means.

Again with the raindrops on the windshield.
