Well, let's see... since my last post I've had a slumber party at my house for the high school girls, made a quick shopping trip to Valencia, had a baby shower at my house for Jaclyn and Baby Girl Krause, had several play dates and a sleepover with Avery, and done the usual work and church stuff -- all WITHOUT A CAMERA! I had good intentions for pictures of all of these things -- but it just didn't happen.
I did get my camera out after the fact, though, to take pictures of my birds. I had some Christmas money and Lisa needed to go to Valencia to pick up something she had ordered, so Layne and I tagged along for the ride. Well, okay, so we did more than ride :)
A couple years ago I started adding red birds to my Christmas decorations -- they make me smile. And now over the last few months I've picked up a little "every day" bird here and there. But on our trip to Valencia I just kind of went a little crazy for the birds and it's quite possible you could describe my family room as an aviary. So, here's my new collection...
Forgive the view -- it's above eye level and I was too lazy to get the bench
This could be my favorite -- the colors are perfect to go on the wall between my kitchen and family room
No, wait -- I think is my favorite. He needs a name, though - hmmmm.
I'll have to think of a name.

Hmmm...Orville is good. Or, maybe their names all need to start with "K".
I think birds do bring a smile. I like them in the house, too. Not live ones though. It kind of gives me the creeps to have a live one inside. I used to collect them for the Christmas Tree, so I have all sizes, shapes & colors of birds for the tree.
