LOML's Birthday!


Happy birthday, LOML (Love of My Life). You are wonderful. And now very, very old. (Just kidding).

We've been spending the day relaxing and doing not-much. I gave LOML a model helicopter for his birthday, so we spent the morning figuring out how to fly it (and then chasing the cat around the house with it, which was very entertaining). LOML is building a dolly for his film camera and fixing up his recording equipment for the 48 Hour Film Festival this year - we went shopping at hardware and audio stores, then stopped at an Indian restaurant for lunch. Now he's hammering and sawing outside while I work (and nap) in the sun. Barbecue and birthday cake tonight!

Beautiful dress! The print reminds me of stained glass :)
Haha, I think I would chase a cat with a model helicopter if I had the chance, too. Entertaining, indeed ;)
Birthdays are always great fun. Enjoy the barbecue and cake!
