| Joe and our friend Rich |
Besides Elaine, Joe and I, our friends Marion, her husband Rich, and Frank were there.
Elaine is a great cook and also great on the grill.
This is Frank's dog, Sydney. He kept barking and barking at me. I have no idea why because he never did that before.
After awhile my allergies were really bothering me so I went inside for awhile. The guys were already inside talking.
Look at this pretty red, white and blue wreath my sister has on her door.
We were celebrating three birthdays: Joe, Marion and Frank. Elaine had cakes for them.
Here's my sweet sister, Elaine, and our friend Marion.
We sang "Happy Birthday" and they blew out the candles.
And of course eating the cake and the opening of the gifts.
We all hung out for awhile.

Then it was time to go.
We left at 8:00 p.m. and pulled up in front of our house at exactly 10:00 p.m. It was an uneventful drive for which I was thankful.
It was a wonderful day. Thank you, Elaine, for letting me use some of your pictures even if I didn't ask you first.

DeleteWhat a fun time with family and friends. Celebrating birthdays and Memorial Day. Oh the cakes look yummy. We're celebrating our granddaughter's 8th birthday with ice cream this weekend. I'll have to try the video on my computer. It didn't come up on my cell phone or maybe I didn't wait long enough. Happy weekend to you and Joe.
ReplyDeleteVideos are tricky. Sometimes they work and then other times... Have fun at your granddaughter's birthday celebration. 8 is a fun age.
Deletethe video worked this time, on my computer. Fun! Yes we had a good time eating ice cream as a family!
DeleteI love your traditions! It all looked just perfect! Elaine has such a lovely home and all that food made my ,outs water! We sat out in the gazebo yesterday afternoon and we could smell Stephanie roasting hotdogs in her back yard! Then we came in and ate garden salads! NOT what we were hungry for by that time!
ReplyDeleteI'll bet you had rather be in the other yard with those hot dogs! But at least you are healthy.
DeleteI could feel the fun coming from each of the photos! The gifts are very pretty. It appears everyone had a great time. Glad you got a break on the traffic. Great day all around!
ReplyDeleteIt really was a fun day. Thanks, Debbie.
