My Birthday

Boys can enjoy a tea party too!

Grammy and Alex enjoying their time together.

Here I am with my fancy lunch.

Me sitting at our pretty table for our tea party. Our strawberry tea under the cozy. Delicious lemon curd sitting on the table. Alex loved the lemon curd since he loves lemons.

I had a great birthday! Mike woke me up before going to work and gave me my card and money to buy me some new clothes and he said that is all the money can be used for not everyday things. Michelle and Alex took me to the English Rose Tea Room for a fancy Mother, daughter, and "grandson" lunch. I had asked Mike not to have a big party for me on my 50th birthday. Mike and Michelle did get together some great friends for dinner. I had said I wanted to go to Out Back but we didn't go to the one at Hamilton Place we went to the one at North Gate and I wondered why but it was because that was closer for Linda and John. Dianne and Austin came also, Brian wasn't able to come because he had a meeting at church, one that Todd had to go to also so he wasn't able to come either. I wasn't mad at Mike and Michelle since they kept it small and did a good job of picking people to come since they are close friends. Being the big 50 isn't bad after all. What is the big difference in being 49 one day and 50 the next really. Why do us women worry about numbers anyway. You are only as old as you feel like you are. Some days I do feel 50 or more with my knee but I try to ignore it and feel young. My little grandson makes me feel young because I want to enjoy him and my family as much as possible. If I want to pretend that I am 30 something I can right. Josh says that I am 30 something so I am going with that, thanks nephew.
