Friend's birthday party - literary characters

Autumn Equinox party in the garden

Maya was jamming! (sorry, no pic)

Happy Birthday Ava!

We love you and wish you the best year!
And here's Maya writing your card;

Odds and ends

My morning glories finally bloomed! The gogosari from Cati's seeds are growing very fast. Finding shoes to fit Maya was eventful enough to merit a photo!And I discovered Maya's school is inhavited by vampires (larger size will show it)

First day of school part deux

We celebrated Maya at the exclusive restaurant "Le Roof"

First Day of school!

Just dropped Maya for her new school year. She's been up since 6 with excitement.

Garden party

One of the gardeners who is also a fisherman gave a party yesterday. There was some bass he caught and cooked, apple pie and other goodies, plus music and merriment. Last photo is the gogosar I've been growing from seeds sent by Cati (I got more than one!)
