Happy Birthday,

have fun with all of your fabric

They were so proud of themselves! For the last few months they had people going to the Goodwill and garage sales gathering up fabric, and asking their relatives for scraps.

What a lovely gift!!!!

That, and the 60 helium filled balloons in my greenhouse. Which they did in the middle of the night. Along with 60 large home-made candles in the front yard.

What a great birthday they made for me!

Well Happy 60th to you, from another one who will be 60 in June!!

I got a great early present...a little hand gun I've been wanting. My whole family went together to get it for me for my 60th!
