Hey Mama

This post is just for you! 

On Saturday, my wonderful, awesome, stupendous, beautiful, caring, loving mother turned the big 5-0.

We had a party for her at my parents house. By we, I mean my Dad… he really did a great job getting everything together.IMG_9818editIMG_9825editIMG_9780editOpening our gift… a tart burner (if you don’t have one, go to your Yankee candle store and get one asap) IMG_9783editShe got a mixture of “real” gifts and gag gifts. My uncle Jimmy gave her a mini road cone to put out when she’s having an old-person moment.IMG_9789editShe got a beautiful necklace from my Dad, along with a poem he wrote her. If I can I will scan it and share it with you all, it was so sweet.IMG_9799editMy aunt Angie and uncle Mike gave her some penny loafers, a head scarf, and a navy blue purse that only an elderly lady from the 90’s would love. It’s time she starts dressing her age, right?IMG_9805editClassy!IMG_9809editI love you!

Looks like you had a great time. Happy birthday to your mum. I wouldn't have guessed she was 50. My mum turned 50 in April.

I look forward to reading more of your blog.
