I know, I know... but this was major.
Sister's FIRST EVER birthday party!!!!!
Sister's FIRST EVER birthday party!!!!!
Had to share my BEST FRIEND'S 91st Birthday with you before I blog about my FABULOUS trip South.
You all know how special this nun is to me.
With Randy in tow...
This is Françoise, her very dear friend.
We were 40 guests in total.
We were at the convent where she lives.
Some of her special family traveled from Sudbury where Sister is from,
and it is where I'm taking her this summer to see her last sibling, who has dementia.
It's time.
No more waiting.
See the pretty PINK blouse I bought Sister for her special day?
She had to shine like
the star she is.
Speaking of *'s, one family bought
Sister her own star in the sky. WOW!!
Look how PRETTY these Calla Lilies are.
My sister Debbie.
More family.
MY FAVOURITE PICTURE OF ALL.
And that, my friends, is only the beginning to this sweet Sister's 92nd yr. of life, if I have anything
to do with it.
She LOVES you ALL,
and blesses you : )
HAPPY MEMORIAL WEEKEND
TO ALL MY USA FRIENDS.

It looks like Sister had a fun celebration, didn't she? That was so nice to give her a party that she won't forget. I'd have to say my favorite picture is the one of the balloons. She looks so happy. What a special friend you are to her....and to us!

Holy Frijole's Missy!
I was over here seeing what you'd been up to when my eBay item I've been looking for was nearly up so I had to go do some shoppin'... then, when I came back you'd been to visit. How sweet is that?
Love that you're so close to Sister and that you do so many things for her. What a blessing she is in your life.
Thrilled for you that you're going south again. Whooopeee! How fun that will be. I'm GrrrrEEn with envy. It's my dream to go south, but it's not in the cards right now. Dang it all.
Have a wonderful weekend dear one...
