I will email you to get addresses.  Now, for everyone else- I&#8217;d like to send you a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/mimik\/897096237\/\">printed patch<\/a>, so I will email you and if you want one, you can send me your address.<\/p>\n<p>Everything got a bit too crazy here on the actual birthday.  I ended up hardly being home at all!  I  added the names of everyone who wished me Happy Birthday, no matter what post they commented on, also emails, up to Friday evening, when we finally did the drawing.  I couldn&#8217;t make myself do it- I had to get my husband.  Otherwise, somehow, it didn&#8217;t seem fair!  Then, the computer got unhappy and I couldn&#8217;t post until this morning.  Everyone should have gotten their emails by now.<br \/>\nI had a great birthday.  I spent the afternoon at the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mfa.org\/\">Boston MFA <\/a>and saw the  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mfa.org\/hopper\/\">Edward Hopper<\/a> show. I brought <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/flickr.com\/groups\/342700@N20\/\">Noah<\/a> with me to the museum, but never got a chance to take a photo.  I had to run out at the end to go pick up Peter.  I turned to snap a photo of the museum before I left.  This is what I found when I downloaded the pics-<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"image1037\" alt=\"83mfa.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/08\/83mfa.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Isn&#8217;t that weird!  It was NOT on purpose!  Just in case it isn&#8217;t obvious- the sculpture is the man walking on a pipe over the entry driveway&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>And, I got my very own Ipod&#8230; yes!  I can&#8217;t wait to start downloading all the great podcasts, instead of having to listen to them on my computer.<\/p>\n<p>Then, out for ice cream with Noah-<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"image1035\" alt=\"83icecream.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/08\/83icecream.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Isn&#8217;t that an eye-popping photo of a hotdog- yikes!  Altogether a great day.<\/p>\n<p>Friday, Ben and I took Noah out for iced coffee in the North End of Boston- and I took his sweater off.  I couldn&#8217;t bear seeing him wearing it- it has been very, very hot and humid here-<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"image1036\" alt=\"83coffee.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/mimikirchner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/08\/83coffee.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This morning, I am off to Northboro for another day of doll making togetherness.
