Happy Birthday Mark- yes VERY late:)

May 27th was Mark's birthday and we had a fun day of celebration! I had a brownie mix that my sister sent from India and I badly misjudged the measurements... so the brownies were interesting. But we added a little ice cream and enjoyed the celebration:)
During the day we, while the girls were at school, we visited the Tile Museum. Mark and I have been wanted to visit for awhile and just haven't had a free day. The tiles above are a huge panorama of Lisboa before the 1755 earthquake that destroyed a huge part of the city.

Letha and I are standing in front of a tile set that depicts Creation through Christ's Resurrection. If you know what a story cloth is this was just like that only done on tiles, it really is beautiful.
Mark found Letha a new boyfriend:)
It was a great museum with beautiful tiles and pottery. We all enjoyed the morning and ended it off in a great cafe for coffee and pastries!
And, of course, spent the afternoon and evening celebrating with Mark.
