My mom turned 70 on December 30. What an amazing lady! We had a party for her and a post Christmas celebration with my family.
Four years ago, when my dad turned 70, my siblings and I created a tribute to him - 70 things we loved about him. My oldest brother Marc created a poster we had framed for him. We had so much fun doing it and Dad quite enjoyed it. When my grandma turned 95 in 2009, we did the same. So of course we had to make one for my mom too. My siblings and I sent MANY emails back and forth sharing our ideas. In the end, we came up with 101 things we love about her. And truthfully, we could have kept going. I can only hope to be half the woman she is. The older I get, the more I recognize all the sacrifices she made for her family. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her!!
Here's the party:
This is Candice, Aaron's "friend," wearing the apron Mom made her for Christmas. I really like this girl. I hope she stays around a long time.
My little Bubba with his Christmas present.
(I'm almost to 2011...)
