My mom, aka Mimi, turned 60 on March 4th. She and Elise share their birthday! We had a little family shin-dig on the actual day of her birthday. The boys were excited and helped me prep all day before she arrived :-)
Mom with her youngest two, reading her cards. Maggie made her a jar in which each of her four kids wrote down 60 reasons why we love her. She loved it! And I made a photo book on Chatbooks, which she can keep on her coffee table or as a brag book on her purse...
A sign I found her for in Canton
Mimi with her five grandchildren!
The birthday gals!
After dinner we met my brother and rode on DART to AAC to see Fleetwood Mac!
Many a childhood memories for us four kids growing up listening to them! So when Maggie told me there were playing ON the night of mom's bday, we HAD to go! And I had to make t-shirts to document :-) They read, "Mama, Mimi. Donna is 60!"
Such a great show!!! And the cold weather, "Snowmageddon" didn't hold back attendance for the sold-out show!
Speaking of snow, it snowed 5 inches that night and took us almost 5 hours to get back home, all 25 miles of it...memories!
The kids didn't care that we got little to no sleep :-) and they were up with the roosters ready for a fun day together inside and outside in the snow!
This year is a BIG year for decade birthdays in my family! My Memaw turned 80 in February. We headed to Vernon that day to celebrate her!!
Brett's grandfather passed away in February. He was known as Pappy to his nine grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren. Found this picture of him holding Brett from circa 1985.
We celebrated his life with a beautiful memorial service, and we look forward to reunited with him again one day
