Birthday card idea

 This is an idea that I've used for many years. I thoroughly enjoy finding examples to fill in a Top Ten list - with the person who has a birthday being No. 1. The idea is to find the person's name used in as many categories as possible. There are the obvious ones: actor, musician, athlete, politician, historical figure, artist and then 4 more that might be a stretch - like a town, lake, mountain - or a cartoon character - or in this case - a product. I just thought of another one - Andrews Air Force Base. I'm not sure where it is - but something like that is always fun if the birthday person would relate to it in some way.

I can't remember what I wrote inside - something like Happy Birthday to the Top Andrew. 

It went in this envelope - both were tossed off very quickly - as I was running out of time prior to the grandkids arriving.

There isn't much of a trip report from the 6th Annual Trip to Iowa. At 9 and 11 - the grandkids are fairly civilized. It was the right year to tell their mom that she needed to come along because the activities that they enjoy are way out of my comfort zone -- so MrWilson was the designated additional adult - to do baseball, pickle ball and a trip to an amusement park. He did not have to do any of the pool activities. All I care about is that there were no trips to the ER and nobody got sick. 

A friend loaned me the game - Clue: Master Detective. It has a bigger board with more rooms and more players and more weapons - and that was a big hit. It was fun to revisit a game that I enjoyed from the olden days that has been improved.
