Birthday presents, including a "garden boar" (think garden gnome) that I found at the store and that we all have fallen in love with. He's the new backyard mascot, keeping watch over passing neighborhood cats..
The obligatory family portrait. The flowering bush behind us smells absolutely gorgeous, and we can't for the life of us figure out what kind of plant it is..
Some birthday cognac, which was especially appreciated!
...and a close-up of the boar. Sorry, I just can't get enough of him!
