Alex - They Say it's your Birthday!!

Let’s  kick off the weekend in a big way  with a  special event for one of our own – Alex (HVAC) celebrates her 50th birthday, April 19.  Not being one to wait, I want to roll this out now and invite you all to attend (virutally).  

Gifts and birthday wishes are welcome – feel free to add a link to a favorite birthday gift picture or song and words works well, too..

Alex - I am sending you the best birthday song I know, from my all time fav group - The Beatles.

Happy Birthday!!!
hugs and more hugs, Laura

Thanks for the birthday wishes.I like having birthdays. I just pasted the 4 year mark since I was diagnosed with cancer. I hope to make it 5 years.

My trip to Europe was the best ever. Everything went perfectly. The week we were on our own and the 2 1/2 weeks with Viking River Cruises. We met the Prince at my Godmother's castle in Germany. We exchanged photographs and stories. We loved everywhere we went. I loved seeing the Lippazaner horses at the Spanish riding school in Vienna. I loved all the churches and castles.

Last weekend I rode in a 1943 Faircloth open cockpit plane over the Chesapeake Bay. The Grove Park Inn in Asheville, NC is our next adventure. Henry Ford and President Roosevelt stayed there. I want to ride horses on the Biltmore Estate and my DH his bike as well as tour the house. After that camping and Zip lining an Hanging rock state park.

In two weeks I am having a celebration of life party. I am doing this instead of a memorial after I am dead. This way I get to see all my friends.

After that we are going to Gettysburg.

Today I got to pet a two week old horse. She was so cute and friendly. Oh in a week I am feeding the Elephants at the Zoo. I am going through my bucket list.

I am having a great time. Life is good. I am glad to be off chemo.

Hey Alex.

I think it would be grand to pet a little horseling!  I got to pet a baby mountain lion once and had a thrill chill up & down my spine.

  I very much like documentaries and recently watched Ken Burns Civil War.  Some interesting parts on Gettysburg.  I think you'll enjoy that trip.

  You are an interesting woman.  Worthy.

Blessings,
  Melinda

Entertainment was unavoidably delayed but wanted to perform for you anyway.  Enjoy a bit of dueling - English Dressage vs. Western Reining.

Llama poop that turned into a surprise party?  Perfect!

Hope Sunday's event was grand in every way.  Don't forget to allow for a bit of rest now that you're older.  LOL

My husband once did a surprise birthday on the guise of getting Llama poop for the garden. We went out to a friend's farm and all my friend's were there.

How did I miss this  Oh, never mind; I already have the answer to that one.

Baby brother turned the big nickel on Saturday.  We accomplished the truly impossible, and surprised him at home a week early.  He planned to watch the Masters, & we (9 or 10 of us) showed up at his door and took him to Olive Garden instead.

How did I spend YOUR birthday?  Doing HVAC work at the church, of course!

Blessings, young lady!

Thanks everyone I did have Boston Cream Pie via my husband. I love the ninja Basset stealing cake. Polly liked the Dalmatain pup. Now we just have to get through the Fundraiser party tomorrow. The car is packed with art work.

I had to step out and take a rest and come back to find this party is still rockin'.  Who has the energy to go all weekend?  It's a big birthday -perhaps one day is not enough!

Here's hoping today was wonderful, Alex, and we didn't wear you out too much.

Hey, this party's been rockin' all night!

Shell, aren't you tired? Gangnam Style dancing for 5 straight hours. And Lu, with that Harlem Shake stuff!

Ren, can you get a big pot of coffee going? I'm off to Duncan Donuts to bring in more supplies!
