Happy 60th Birthday Mom!!





























hey everybody-







so today is mom's 60th birthday, and we celebrated it last night by surprising her at dinner with our little family, tiff and fam, jamie, uncle brule, aunt cherlyn & terry, brule, brad, henry, beau (holly's brother) marilyn, and mom's good friend tania. we were sad that josh and fam, and kristin and fam couldn't be there, but you were definitely in our thoughts. Everyone collaborated and sent us pics of mom so we could make a slide show of her life thus far. It was great and we really appreciate everyone who sent tiff and i pics, especially uncle brule and kristin. pete did a great job and put in lots of hard work so i hope you all enjoyed it. the party was lots of fun, tons of good food, cookie cake, and ice cream for the kids. riley was all hopped up on sugar and had a great time playing with abbi, elli, gabe and of course baby henry :) the adults had a pretty good time too, with the aid of lots of wine instead of lots of sugar(wink wink). especially tiff, i wonder how she's feeling today . . . if you know what i mean :) anyway we all had a great time, mom only cried a little during the slide show which i was surprised about, i expected more sentimental tears, but i think she was still in shock from the surprise of everything. tiff had to help mom blow out the candles . . . and we didn't even put 60 of them on the cake :) she got some great gifts, but more importantly i think she had a great time . . . here are a few pics, i'll post more when i collect them from everyone. lots of love !
