While walking through our backyard today I had the amazing experience to look up and see what looked like a bald eagle flying overhead! I watched it fly over our swamp and land on a tall tree in the park next door. Evan encouraged me to walk over to get a closer view. I did and took as many shots as I could before it took off. The photos confirmed it-- a bald eagle!!     I hope we see him again! We will be listening for his call ~~ found this on YouTube. :-)

 Our 12th Halloween together & Celebrating Evan's 60th birthday today! A wonderful birthday get-together with Evan's brother Scott & beautiful family at their home last week.  Halloween 1969: (L-R) Doug-age 6, Kathy-age 5, John C-age 7  1970 - Fairy Princess Interestingly... Halloween was also my father's birthday. If he was alive, he'd be 84 today. My Mom created delightful, homemade costumes for my brothers and me as youngsters. Our traditional Halloween meal was cheeseburgers with cheese cut in the shape of pumpkins and tater tots, before we went out trick-or-treating! A crystal-clear memory from my childhood is dressing up as this bride as a 5-year old in 1969 (above). However, my memory does not match up with this photo at all!! At the time, when I put on this costume I felt transformed into this magnificent, beautiful creature--the most wonderful thing in the world--a LOVELY BRIDE! Apparently, I decided to cut my page-boy bangs, and ended up with this catastrophic hair-do (LOL)! The following year I was a 'fairy princess' in the same gown. It's amazing what a good haircut can do!!! :-)  I had a dream of being a real bride since age 5! Here's a pic from our wedding day in 2007 -- Some dreams take a long time to come true!  Here's a shot of Dad (Harry Jakubowski), age 32, who shared the same birthday - today - as Evan!
Father's Day 1967 with my brothers   This year our bunny decided to be "Capt. Mac Sparrow"
from the movie, Pirates of the Caribbe-bun!  Continuing to mock my attempts at orderliness... Mac approves our decision to remove the red hay-holding tray.
