This was the best birthday and I feel like I am at least 95, now, because I have celebrated it many times! My wonderful children took me out to a great dinner on the beach in July and that was the first celebration. Then, I exchanged a Time Share for Hilton Head and Carol, Andrew, Jeb, Kathy, Danny, Kelly, Claire, Grant, Fiona, Michael were all able to come for part of the week and we celebrated on Tuesday night with birthday cake, balloons and they presented me with this wonder IPOD player. Wednesday night, Carol took Andrew and me out to dinner at a jazz restaurant, Jeb took me out for a sunset dinner on Friday night right over the water at Harbor Town. We came home from Hilton Head on Saturday, the 8th. On Monday, my tennis buddies gave me a luncheon at Twin Lakes with great food and friends. On Tuesday, some dear long time friends gave another luncheon at Twin Lakes and we ate and swam for both of these. On Friday, Anne & Ed gave me a dinner party with Bill, Joe, Camille, Francis, and George. They all gave me gifts!

Joe and Sandy gave me a ticket to D.C. for my birthday and I left on Tuesday the 18th and returned on Monday, the 24th. George came over two nights for dinner. Highlights were a visit to Dan's grave at Arlington, working out with Sandy at her health club, day trip and lunch at Tilghman Island and ice cream and browsing at St. Michaels Island, Sandy and I went to see the movie "Julie and Julia". Sandy is a wonderful cook and she and I both enjoyed the movie.

I thought that was the end of the celebrations, but I played mah jongg Monday night after I returned, and Jean brought me a birthday present and beautiful card. I have enjoyed each and every person who have been so thoughtful and loving and feel truly blessed with such a wonderful family and friends.

Ted came over for dinner last night and has updated my IPOD with a ton of music that Joe and George gave to me, plus all of the ones I wanted to save that were already on there. Now, it's on my computer and I can upload my own CD's to the IPOD. That's very exciting! When Ted bought a new IPOD last year with 16 GB (this one has 8), he said he would lend me his "old" IPOD. Well, I think maybe it's mine, now, since he has let me put all of this other music on it.

I think I have had the best birthday of anybody this year, and I don't need to celebrate any more until I'm 100. Gosh, that's not that far away.

Mom:

I failed to mention that the first dinner at Anna Maria with all of the adult children, they gave me a huge bottle of Absolute! I don't know how to go back in and edit this blog, so will just add it as a comment. I need to have a cocktail party!
