At the lake

After our boat ride to the island we made certain we still had everything we needed.


A guard for the barbecue.




A guest of honor (it was a birthday after all)



I couldn't help but notice the look on Gabe's face as Somebody mugged for the camera [timing is everything].




And what's a birthday without cake?

Strawberry shortcake is Shellwood's Shelley's Michelle's Somebody's favorite birthday dessert.
Another tradition may have been started, as we scarfed this down before all the rest of the guests arrived, thereby assuring there would be enough for us.

Oh, and the camera should always be at the ready.

still more tomorrow
