Birthday celebration!

Head male dancer leading the snake dance.

Dancers in the snake dance.

Marilea and Karen (two of the birthday girls).

Tracey and Judy (Tracey's birthday is also this week).

Marilea (her birthday is actually today).


Today was my friend Marilea's birthday. Some of us travelled up to Grizzly Jack's Grand Bear Lodge Resort for their first ever indoor intertribal pow wow. It was fun. We watched the dancing, did a little shopping, ate some Indian tacos (made with frybread, of course), and ate some ice cream before heading back to Bloomington to Olive Garden for dinner to celebrate three of our group having birthdays this week - Marilea, Tracey, and Karen will all turn one year older this week, Marilea's birthday actually being today. We all agreed that the most necessary part of our getting together is the laughter - everyone needs some good old "belly laughing" in their lives. If you don't have an opportunity for that - seek it out. Find a friend that shares laughter with you. It really is a great stress reliever and a healthy boost to your system. Happy birthday girls, and thanks for the laughs!
