I put the time for this post at the actual time I was born: 4:41 p.m. As the clock turned, I was doing two things I adore: talking with deep, wise, and wonderful women while drinking a pot of tea!
It doesn't get any better than this.
This is my final post to the "Fifty Celebrations to Fifty" blog. It was a wonderful year of joy and laughter with family and friends. I am thankful to God for His wonderful gifts!
See below for a reverse chronological look at my big day!
What a way to end my special day: Teala brought me dinner and we had a late night walk in the hot, sultry night with Tucker! Teala and I are like "Mutt and Jeff" with a 14 inch difference in our statures but hearts beating very close together!
We stayed in the Agatha Christie Room of the Sylvia Beach Hotel. I have always wanted to stay there. So, I booked this room in January, and we got it on our calendars. It was a very special time. This was taken on Debbie's actual 50th birthday. Happy Birthday lifelong friend!
This is the first night of our stay at the Sylvia Beach Hotel in Newport, OR. We planned this months in advance, and it was perfect. We went to dinner at the Table of Contents Restaurant downstairs. It was lovely.
This was supposed to be a 50th birthday cruise for our whole high school class, but everyone dropped out except Beth (Elizabeth), me, and our husbands! LOL!
Here is the whole celebration set: ESHS 50th Birthday Cruise
Lisa and I love High School Musical. So, we had to see Zac in 17 Again!
This was Michael's last state test. Marguerite has been testing him since he was in the 1st grade. This is Michael and Paul's milestone today, but it is also mine. So, I am counting it in my celebrations!!!!
This is my early 50th birthday present; an Amazon Kindle 2!!!!!
Spoke at our service. Celebrating God's Amazing Grace in my life!
