Did you know that Birthday is spelled P-A-R-T-Y!! No kidding. Friends and family and two little boys, too cute for words, all came to help me celebrate.
There was laughter and food and hugs and food and gifts and food........Yep, there was a lot of food.
Dau Shirley, friend Kate and Kate's dau Amy and grandson Christopher were unbelievable helping with everything in the kitchen. Son in law John fixed a light switch, moved things and toted and carried. They all are the best.
Gigi with great-grandson Vann.
Dylan was on the go - party animal that he is.
On my 'real' birth date Shirley took me to Andersons (a nursery, gift shop and cafe with the yummiest of food). Brittany and Dylan joined us and we had over 2 hours of fun in there. Shirley and I ended the day with dessert overlooking the James River while the sun went down. I couldn't have asked for a better birthday.
Thanks to everyone who came, to everyone who wishes me happy birthday both through the mail, on my blogs and on facebook. It was just the best ever. And, many thanks for the gifts although I had asked that none be given. What you gonna do with some people!!!!
Happy birthday, Latane. So glad to hear you had a wonderful party on your birthday. I enjoyed the photos. Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteI am sorry I missed sending you wishes on your birthday, Latane. I had a birthday reminder for you here on my desk but then I was under the weather the whole day and weekend. It is wonderful to hear that you had a great day and a very special party. Thinking of you.
