I just recently had a birthday and it seemed to go on and on with time spent with lots of family and friends.
I was treated to a pre-birthday lunch with my friend Catherine. We always have lots to catch up on and it was good to actually spend time with her.
The actual day of my birthday (Saturday) my daughter Lynn Ann and I went to the Brevard Zoo. A few years ago it was named one of the top 10 zoos in the country by USA Today. Most animals have lots of room to roam “free” and many of them are rescues.
If you look closely you can see a baby kangaroo in the mother’s pouch. The legs and an ear are sticking out.
I love the giraffes and it’s such fun to feed them. The zoo has 6 giraffes.
Then Sunday my friend Donna treated me to lunch after church with our friend Jan joining us.
MondayI finally got together with my best friend for a relaxing few hours sitting on the beach. We had not seen each other in 15 months.
Tuesday another celebration with my daughter, grandson, and my son Jason and his family. We met at a restaurant which is sometimes easier as he lives about 40 miles south of me.
My grandson, Owen, watching while I opened a few gifts from him.
Owen took this photo – not too bad for a 9 year old.
On to the next day, Wednesday, and Epcot with my friend Jim.
The week finished with a birthday celebration and cake with my Mahjong gals, Debi, Sandra, and Evelyn but I didn’t get any photos from that day. And then there was a visit with my friend Rosemary to the new Buc-ees up in Daytona by the Tanger Outlets. It’s an amazing gas station and store. Huge!!!
This was an incredible week. I am blessed with wonderful family and friends.
Happy belated birthday. What a wonderful birthday. Great celebration. Was it a special one.
Thanks Shirley. I suppose any birthday is special but this was not a BIG number. Not yet.
Beth, you are special. You and your family have done the hard part for now: Pandemic.
So glad you had a long birthday celebration.
That’s how you should celebrate your birthday!!!! Lots of fun!!!
I wish we had gotten pictures of our mahjong birthday celebrations, both for my birthday and yours. Next year!
