Another Year Older

I had a wonderful Birthday, oh my goodness how the time does fly when we are having so much fun!  Ole & Shelia were here in the morning for coffee and blueberry cake. They brought me a basket of garden goodies, carrots, potatoes red, yellow and green peppers, tomatoes, potatoes and an onion. Also a jar of crab apple jelly she had made from their crab apples, what a great gift, I love it. Kayla is bear hunting so Jemma spent the day with me.  Kodie, Nash and Paige came out in the early afternoon.  Us five gals made a trip into town to make a few errands in the afternoon had to bring my stuff up to the church for the annual meatball supper Saturday night. Then we stopped by Mom's for a bit, she got to see those two little ones a little and even held Jemma the whole time we were there.  Shelly, Darby, Shane & Melanie brought out supper, Jake's Pizza, potato salad from Earl's, ice cream from the Dairy Queen and Melanie made Sunshine Cake for dessert. I over ate for sure but, it sure was good at the time. I also got so many nice gifts, a box Lori made me from cd cases, pretty neat. A lantern/candle from Mom, bottle of wine from Kayla, Tyrin and Jemma,  Beautiful flowers from Kassandra and JimBob, Tickets to go see Oak Ridge Boys Christmas Show on Nov. 27th and a bottle of wine from Shelly & Darby, Bear Welcome sign and a bear/tree cut out picture from Shane & Melanie, Kodie had Luella Erickson, my first grade teacher "favorite  teacher" call me over messenger, so we could see each other while we talked, that really made my bday special.. I got a beautiful towel set from Jodi and Jerome.  So many phone calls and cards from, Nadine & Dave, Darryl & Mary, Cheryl & Doug, Diane Anderson, Rhonda Rothenberger and Linda Simmons to name a few...  Also 180 some birthday wishes over FB. Very humbling to say the least, to think that so many and each one has played a part in some way in this journey of mine. Made this old gals day, that is for sure.
