Skywatch Friday – Birthdays and Blooms

Last Sunday our family celebrated a birthday, mine. A big milestone birthday, 70. Oops, how did that happen. I’m still here. Heather made me a great breakfast of blueberry pancakes, eggs, and bacon. It was great.

And then we headed to the Tulsa Botanic Garden. Their tulips were peak, in my opinion. It was a little overcast which makes the colors pop!!

All sorts of different colors and varieties.

As a bonus, they had a “florigami” exhibition going on. Florigami is like life sized origami. The works on display were incredible.

I loved this huge florigami tulip on top of the hill overlooking the gardens.

The tulips were everywhere. I have about twenty times as many photos of tulips as what will show up in this post and instagram. Oh well, I got them if I need them.

They had some beautiful wisteria also.

I stole this photo from Heather’s facebook page.

And then we went to Eerie Abbey Ales in downtown Tulsa and had a beer.

And then the nearby La Tertulia restaurant for some decent New Mexico style Mexican food. Green chili enchiladas.

Home for birthday cake. This one lasted three days. I love sheetcake birthday cakes.

Can’t believe I’m 70. That is getting up there.
