September. What a great month this is! In the Mills family, we have 7 birthdays between August 26 and September 30. When I married Donald, we added another September birthday, his dad. And NOW, we're patiently waiting on a new addition to birthday season, our first grand child. I look at the calendar and wonder which of these days will it be? Every day, I think today is the day. I just can't wait to meet him!

What a weird weather day! The remnants of Tropical Storm Lee visited us today. We would go from bright sunshine to pouring rain in about a half second. These clouds rolled in at dismissal time. And yes, it rained on the children leaving school.

Today is two picture day! I found this sign very, very funny. And yet oddly comforting.

For the longest time I've wanted to learn to play guitar. Donald surprised me today with a birthday gift of a not only a guitar, but lessons too! I'm excited!

The pelicans were out fishing today. I was really hoping one would fly directly over me, but I never got that lucky.

Donald and I went out to the beach early this morning, partly to beat the crowd and partly to beat the heat. I took the camera along, just in case I spotted something worthy of shooting. I saw this small X in the sand, and wondered if I should dig for buried treasure.

We had a little mishap with the AC unit in Wilmington. Back when it was so hot, the unit sweated, and the water trickled slowly into the ceiling. We realized it one weekend, and tried to prevent the inevitable by poking holes in the drywall and relieving the pressure. It worked for a while, but eventually, it all came tumbling down.

The birthday weekend has begun! There's a restaurant close to our house that sends you a coupon every year on your birthday. We decided to cash in on it tonight. I had penne pasta with artichokes and spinach, and Donald had white pizza.
