Better late than never. Mom's party was a lot of fun! We had a good turnout and we had more than enough food. That was a major stressor. Jen and I had never hosted a party before and we sweated the entire event. We have vowed to never do such foolishness again. he he! Well, we told Mom, if she was good, we'd have a 90th party for her. We better start planning now! Andrew and Alex spent the day at the amusement park. I think they had fun and I believe they stayed out of mischief. Either way, what I don't know won't hurt them. We ended up getting gorgeous weather although the shelter was swarming with bees. Chris spent the day creating bee-traps as he was one of the great white hunters in the group. He did a really good job of trapping but poor Helen got stung while eating. I don't believe there were any other casualties. Dave gave Mom some Depends adult diapers and some denture cream along with some other thoughtful gifts. His 'hideous' slippers didn't turn out as he had planned though because everyone loved them. Can't remember who got her the bright red lipstick but we made her put it on and she looked marvelous. Her cake was really nice although the picture turned out green. Leave it to Grandma to show up with a moldy cake!

Sounds like a great party. I'm sorry we weren't able to make it. It was such a hectic time not only were we not able to make it but I didn't even remember it that weekend. It sure is nice to have things slow down a little. We had Homecoming last week at school so I am more than glad to have a normal week this week.
Happy Birthday Donna! Sounds like a great party, and thanks for the pictures they really add to your story. I'm and ex-relative and a big fan of your blog.
