Mom's B-day
Sunday, November 2nd, was my Mom's birthday! Robby and I headed to the more northern region of the state, West Valley, to celebrate. I gave my Mom a little black shelf as a gift. It will be a nice addition to their newly remodeled home...courtesy of Steve, he is quite the craftsman.
It was the big Five-O this year for my Mom. It is really hard to fathom the idea that she is actually fifty. One, because I don't even feel like I'm twenty-two...so how can my mom be fifty? Two, I remember when she turned forty...and I swear it was only yesterday. Time goes by so quickly. Three, just look at her...she doesn't even look fifty.
As usual, we ate a lot of food, laughed, and shared lots of stories from the good ol' days. Whitney was her usual self, and text the majority of the time. [SIGH] If she could get away with it, she would probably quit talking, and use text as her only form of communication.
The cake was just a little too small to fit all of the candles. I'll have to bring a bigger one next time. :) Steve's daughter, Cassie, had to be right up front helping "Joycie" with the cake and candles. Her birthday is coming up soon, and all she could talk about was the kind of cake she wanted.
All in all, we simply had a good time. :) Love you Mom!

Such fun! It's good to see your mom. Glad all is well. You, I, and the Blister need to make a lunch date soon.
