Happy Birthday to me! Yesterday my sister came from 2 states away for my birthday. Was so happy to see her looking so good finally after her pacemaker. Dalton surprised me by coming in, I wasn’t expecting him. I was expecting my two daughters and family. We ate gumbo, potato salad and strawberry cake. Nine of us played Farkle . Marsha won the first game and I won the second. Everyone had to leave then because of school Wednesday and work. Enjoyed my family!


Last photo was Friday our anniversary night. We went to the Catfish restaurant we have been goin to since the 1970’s

Edited- last photo now is when Dalton left earlier than others. He had came up to me, at the refrigerator, to ‘love’ me bye and so the girls took our picture while we were still together.

Great to see you and the family, and what a lovely surprise to see Dalton.
I had a T-shirt with " God would not have made me a Quilter, if he wanted me to cook and clean" Love Chris

P.S. we are leaving Singapore tonight (Friday just after midnight) at 00.45 am will be in Sydney airport about 11.30am Saturday morning..

Lol-when my son-in-law Richard hugged me bye he told me again Happy Birthday and I told him really good people are born in October (his month too). This month we had Grandson Cameron 16 or 17, g-grandson Rylan (6) I think, Richard, g-son Ty (20) and me. I think that’s all for October. Thanks I had a lovely day

Happy Birthday to your husband. The 19th was my Aunt Olar’s birthday too. She always told me I was a day older bc mine was the 18th. When I was young I wondered why she looked so much older than me, if I was a day older-lol

Yes it was! Sheila's finally feeling better after her surgery and was able to make the long drive, over 500 miles. Thank you, my day was great!

Gotta love surprise gifts like these! I love the 2 glowing faces of you and your sister being able to see and hug each other. What a special birthday and anniversary you have had. I love your T-shirt. That is so you who have blessed so many with your quilting skills.

I was so glad to see Sheila but when looking at the pictures later my heart pained because the picture was missing one more, Sue. It was almost always the three of us. Our son gave me the tee shirt, thanks.

Yes when Dalton drove up we thought it was Grayson’s truck, as it was dark. Imagine our surprise when he came in. I thought he was working away but he said he had been driving home every day, a 2 hour drive there and 2 hours back.

Yes I did! My sister came yesterday morning and so after lunch we taught her to play Farkle. She won two games and I won a few times, but every time I won she’d say I only won because it was my birthday-lol Thank you
