Birthdays and Friends

Today was a friends birthday, she turned 80. Wow!!! Not everyone reaches that number, she is very lucky! Had a cake for her and friends were there to help eat it, and wish her many more!!
I haven't posted for a few days, the start of the week was very cold, but it has gradually warmed up a bit, and now feels rather like spring, which of course it is!! Easter is not far away, and the Easter bunnies will be out in force soon. I have always liked bunnies, cute little things that they are, but of course we know that is not the real reason that Easter is celebrated as Christians from all over the world could tell you. But, little kids enjoy the extra little things, like coloring eggs, the candy which of course are many, and the Easter Egg Hunt. It is fun when they are very young and the joy that appears on their little faces when they find an egg or two for their individual baskets. The Easter bonnets and new shiny shoes along with the "very special" dress or outfit is priceless for Mommies and Daddies and of course the all important pictures for the future generations. What fun, and what memories you will have for your golden years, for we know that we will make those when we have those fun family holidays and get togethers along life's way. I have good ones, hope all of you do too. I left out one important thing, food!!! Those yummy ham or other meats of your choice and the many special dishes and desserts, of which we all can recall. My thoughts alone can put on pounds! :-) Ah, are you ready?? I think I am. I will just have to be more careful of what I eat, but I will be there will bells on!!! Camera in hand, and arms waiting for those wonderful welcome hugs. See at the dinner table!! Have fun, and remember to make new memories for later.
