My Birthday and Featured
On Aug 16,1932 my dad was born, thirty years later I was born.He wanted a child on his birthday and he planned for it.
Fifteen years later Elvis died on my birthday,the dirty dog
.
I want to thank Donkey_Guy_10 , Xcholo4u , lorilily ,AcidSam and angi1972
for their posts wishing me a 'Happy Birthday'. Thank you to everyone who sent birthday wishes by way of messages and comments.
CynaraJane , angi1972 , and BB61 all called me on my cell phone!
I am so blessed, I know that I am.
My husband brought me breakfast in bed and a dozen red roses. He took me out to dinner ,to Borders to pick out whatever I wanted then to Best Buy to get THIS video camera plus THIS editing program.I want to document more stories of Ida's life and get my mom to tell a few also.

Good for you! I'm glad you had a great birthday!
happy birthday!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, I never thought nature could have so many colors, You don't even see stuff like that in a crayon box.
Happy Birthday, Beth!
Glad you're enjoying it.
Glad you had a wonderful birthday.
Does the hubby realize he might see even less of you now, with those new toys he gave you?
Congratulations . . . you deserve every single Featured you get, you've got such a good eye for photos . . .
Happy Belly Button DAY!
WOW...you did have a great BD. You deserve everything you received.
glad ur birthday went well.

My computer froze yesterday when I visited. Happy Birthday late!
HAPPY, HAPPY (belated) BIRTHDAY! Sounds like you had a great day!
I'm glad you had a good birthday and I'm also glad to see your gorgeous pics being featured
OH MY! A video camera and editing software???? You will never have time to make salsa again my friend!
I have a video camera but rarely use it. I just tend to grab the still camera. Your video project is indeed a worthy one.
I do love the john deere tractor shot and the robin's eggs. Just wonderful.
Congratulations on another featured shot!
*come to ny, come to ny, come to ny*
*winks*
subliminal message from tude!
I am so glad you had a great day! My birthday boy went and cut the grass! lol But we really celebrated his bd a couple of weeks ago, when both of the girls were here...
stopping by from Angi's site - sorry I missed your birthday yesterday- hope you had a GREAT day....love the background on here BTW!
A belated Happy Birthday to you! Sounds like it was a good one for you!
Xanga is the best. I've tried the others but they aren't anywhere as good as Xanga.
I didn't think you were bragging at all! Yea! For featured! I think everyone of those photos deserved to be there!
I can't wait to see the videos you do with your new camera! Especially the stories from your mamas! That is such a cool idea!
I'm so glad you had a good birthday. I think Ben did too.
Be safe! Some day I AM going to talk to you when I don't have to think about ten million other things! lol (((((((((((((((((((HUG))))))))))))))))) ANG
I was naughty and didnt call you. Phooey. I love the new photo and video features. Some of them are great photographers. I try and look at all the photos posts and what not. I have been so busy trying to finish my projects.
You deserve to brag. Your photos are wonderful. They just pop out at you. When I'm searching through the photos and I see one that I like,it ends up usually being one of yours. So congrats to you!!!!! Keep up the good work.( I can't open the link to the song,what is the song?)
Happy Birthday!!
That's really great about your photos being feature.. COOL!! 
You are a very accomplished photographer! I really love the "Board Walk!"
RYC: And the world has never been the same.
I hope your birthday was as good as mine was.
Hey there happy birthday and congrats on making Featured!
I feel quite honored. Thank you.
Now I want to come again and make a movie!!

I agree that Xanga is the best blogging community out there!! Yay Xanga!

Happy birthday!!! I love your photos, glad you got featured. Love the video of your motherinlaw, what a precious lady and you are all so blessed to have her.
Wow, you did have an awesome birthday, it sounds like.
Congrats on all the Featured photos.
And how sweet, and typical, of you to thank everybody for the birthday wishes and to point out other great photographers.
You are one in a million, sweetie.
Hope today is a great one for you too.
*hugs*
I'm so glad you had a wonderful birthday, Beth! Sounds like you got everything you could possibly want in one sitting!
Talk to me before you buy Premeire Elements. I've had a lot of problems running it in Vista. I think it works better in XP. If you want more info, let me know.

Happy birthday! I always enjoy reading your blog (though I often fall short on commenting). I loved your recent video of your mother in law. It really struck me how that she can look back and be thankful for a life well spent. And by the way, my birthday is today, one day later than yours!

Love the photos. We had a robin's nest with four eggs in it too, this year. The little ones were so cute, and the parents never minded me taking a peek.

Feliz cumpleanos, Beth!! You take very beautiful pictures!!
You should pick 12 and have them made into a calendar for Christmas gifts!!
Happy Belated!! Congrats on you picture being featured! I love them all!
Happy Birthday! I am sorry I missed it!
I used to go to Amelia's when we lived there, but now, even though I work around there, all I want to do is go home after work, not grocery shop! I never go to DRS though. I like Aldi a lot.. but still have to go to Redners for other things.
We went to Liberty today, the one in Pottstown. I need to go to the one in Gilbertsville too though. Which one do you go to? I think their sales change per day, like Good will.
ryc: At first when I read your comment I thought... Ooops... Beth got the wrong site... lol Then it hit me! Duh... lol
That sounds SO cool for the pointsettia show! I can't wait to see how you do it! Hope you find some good boards!
It was so fun today but now I am completly whipped. lol Sleep here I come!
Tomorrow is supposed to be the hreasher show and I really want to go... I can't believe I still want to after beinggone all day. lol
Night Beth! GO TO SLEEP! I saw your foot prints creeping around early in the a.m. You need some sleep woman!
thresher show... ugh.. excuse my FAT fingers. lol
night!
Happy belated birthday, special lady!
Wow! I'm sorry I missed your birthday! Happy belated bday!
*hugs*
I'm glad you had a great day! Those are some very nice gifts!
I missed your birthday? :^( Sorry I read that is was a good one so that makes me happy. My wish for you is many more to come. Happy belated birthday {{{hugs}}}
A very happy belated birthday, Beth. I don't know how other Xangans keep up with that stuff.
If anyone has a right to brag, youdo, your photos are all outstanding, you have a wide variety of interests.
