Happy birthday to the bird!

A little bird told me (You knew I'd have to work that in somehow) that today is our favorite Katiebird's birthday! Many many happy returns of the day, kb!

Okay, so that cake says, "Robbie."

Pretend it says Cathy, okay?

Honestly, some people are so picky.

Hugs Robbie-Cathy.

Beautiful Birthday KB.

{{Andi}} and {{Lisa}} Thank you!

There's still plenty of cake left. Would you like some coffee too?

Kelly McCullough said...

Happy Birthday, KB, and many happy returns of the day!

Nancy P said...

Hauls in metal tub with iced beer.

"Hey, it's your bday and it's Saturday, let's partay!"

Goes back out for cold bottles of champagne.

KB! (please excuse my poor singing voice) So, today is your birthday, that is what I've been told. What a wonderful birthday, you are one more year old. On a cake you'll have candles all lighted for you. And the world will be singing, Happy Birthday to YOU! And many mmooorreee.

Cake and champagne - sounds like a great dinner to me.

katiebird said...

The preparations look great! We're going to have a great time!

(wishing it was a real-life kind of party)

Lisa M said...

Coffee with my cake please.
Then I'll pull one of those brews, Nancy.

KB, your Texas birdie friends are feasting in my backyard. They heard about the celebration and wanted to join in. The redheaded woodpecker, two doves and a squirrel followed the blue jay.
You are well thought of in this clan.

katiebird said...

(blushing)

Ah, Bono -- you have a wonderful voice! Thank you!

Awk - I missed Kelly! Kelly, Thank you!!

katiebird said...

:) Lisa -- that sounds good to me too! And the birds are out in force up here. Watching them flit through the trees was one of the best things about our walk this afternoon.

Happiest Hippo Birdie, KB!!! Sending virtual hugs to my favorite bird. On my way out the door for steamed clams and a cocktail - but cake and champagne sound a LOT better!

Hope you're having the most wonderfulest day possible!!

katiebird said...

{{Beth}} Thank you and your evening sounds like a lot more fun than me. I'm just sitting here listening to some country guy yelling at the weatherman (Gary Lezak) about the weather, "It's out there Gary -- it's OUT There" I think he means a tornado but I'm not sure (and so is Gary).

(it's out by the Kansas Speedway which is pretty far away from Nancy and me)

These weather reporters... They take over the TV and don't let it go for ANYTHING.

Family Man said...

What everybody else said!

Happy Happy B'day KB. I hope today is a great one for you, and I hope today is just the first of many great ones to come for you.

Now then, where's the cake? :)

Lisa M said...

Mr. & Mrs. Cardinal have joined the festivities.
Looks like we have a good group in your honor KB.
TV coverage of weather drives me crazy. They put some map over a quarter of the screen and they HYPE it up. So here's wishing the winds blow the other way and all you gals/guys stay safe.

katiebird said...

Well, it looks like something DID touch down up in the northern part of the city. So it's pretty horrible. But, do they really have to dominate every single television station for the entire evening?

Most of the city is unaffected by this.

That sounds incredibly insensitive, but really they're mostly repeating the same thing over and over again.

It's what they do, KB - fill the time with the same info, presented a different way. If you don't have news, make it up! Hopefully no one was hurt - tornadoes are very scary. At least with hurricanes you have plenty of warning, and can escape. Hope they're done for the night, and the weather people can find something else to talk about!

Nancy P said...

katiebird, are you having a nice Your Day?

btw, do you like cupckes?

katiebird said...

I am having a nice day... And I LOVE cupcakes... (I'm sad about Bea Arthur's death though)

katiebird said...

"Make a wish and spit on the cake!"

Nancy P said...

Ew, kb just spit on the cake!

Larry Kollar said...

Well, so much for cake…

Looks like I got here at the tail-end of the party, but Happy Birthday KB!!!!Smoochies!

katiebird said...

Ah, there's plenty left, FARf. PLUS, I just opened this box of Dove's Chocolates.... (want some?)

Jen said...

Happy Day After Your Birthday Katiebird! ;) I hope you had a wonderful day and got to celebrate however you wanted.

AndiF said...

Howdy Jen, looks like we're the early morning revelers. But I do like a party that know how to go on and on.

Happy Birthday the Day After, kb. :)

Morning all.
