"I do believe in an everyday sort of magic...the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of synchronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we're alone." Charles de Lint

Wonderful Whirlwind!

What a wonderful whirlwind of celebrations over the past couple of days. A refreshing change from our mostly quiet lives. 

Today was Paul's birthday. North headed back to Denver...so the house was quiet again. We both did exactly what we wanted and needed to do which included a delightful walk on a trail through the woods and I got the bare bones of the Christmas tree up. 

Thanksgiving leftovers with a slice of apple pie and a scoop of ice cream topped off the birthday.

Happy Weekend After Thanksgiving from the Shupe Family!
And Happy Birthday Paul!


And it was nice to have a few of the cousins together.

    What a terrific few days you've had—definitely a wonderful whirlwind (that whirlwind appears to have shaped a tree trunk while whirling!!). Happy birthday, Paul! I enjoyed hearing bits and pieces of your refreshing change from your mostly quiet lives. So many blessings.
