He's of the colour of the nutmeg. And of the heat of the ginger.... he is pure air and fire; and the dull elements of earth and water never appear in him, but only in patient stillness while his rider mounts him; he is indeed a horse, and all other jades you may call beasts. ~William Shakespeare, Henry V

JESSIE'S BIRTHDAY PARTY

Today was Jessie's birthday party at my parents house. There wasn't a very big crowd there because of the AC/DC concert in Fargo and the local bank in Leeds had their Christmas party. Brandi Duran and her two oldest boys, Denae and Desidy Schwanke, and Grandpa and Grandma Hanson did make it to the party. There were gifts dropped off at the house by Kim Nelson and her kids, and Breanne Larson and her boys, and even Auntie Missy mailed a gift card to Jessie.

Jessie got a lot of cool gifts. She got a Diego backpack, the Magic of Pegasus Prince, the Dora the Explorer twin dolls, a pink VTech laptop, a yo yo ball, watercolor paints, coloring books, clothes, a new pair of snow boots, and some movies. After gift opening, it was cake time.

All the kids played very well. It was nice to talk to Denae since I only seem to run into her when she is working in the pharmacy or in the bar. I was really happy that Darren's parents came down to enjoy the day with us. It's nice to know that even though Darren and I are not married anymore, we are all still friends.

Enjoy the pics.
