Happy Birthday Momsie!

On Sunday we celebrated my Mom's birthday!  I cooked a simple dinner, we ate cake, and played some family games!  I can't say enough wonderful things about this woman!  How lucky am I to live so close and have her in my life?!  Not only in my life but in the lives of my kids.  They adore her!  She does fun projects with them, takes them for ice cream, she finds extra time to read and play games with them, and most importantly they love to snuggle in her big white fluffy bed and watch movies with her!  She really is the perfect Grandma!  

I look to my mom for never ending support, advice, love, and friendship.  She can solve any problem, clean any stain,  cook any food, sew any quilt, knit any sweater, tend any time, teach any kid, and watch any Major League baseball game (especially the Red Sox)!  I love you mom!  You make my life complete! Here's to many many more birthdays!  Cheers!

Happy Birthday Barbara! What would we do without our amazing mothers? I don't know many women who would allow a giant skull to be hung over the dining room table--what a trooper.

Thank you, Robyn. What a wonderful surprise to login and read that! Wow! Whenever I get sad and blue I can log in and read that!
The dinner was great, the games fun, even though Andy cheated, and the company beyond compare. It was a great way to spend my birthday.
