Birthdays and Flowers

Mystery Blogger

I’ve been a bad blogger this week.

That said, I know you’ll all forgive me, as I’m having the time of my life living large with Boomdee. We celebrated my birthday today, laughing, lunching and loving our time together.

Then we took a twenty-minute refresher, before donning silly wigs and meeting my sister and another friend for dinner at the Left Bank.

I’ve been surrounded by beautiful flowers and lovely friends all day. My clock just struck midnight so I guess it’s not my birthday anymore, but oh, what a day it has been.

I should be in bed, but I’m still abuzz. See you tomorrow.

XOX from the birthday babe.

Stunning blooms in downtown Campbell

Hotel lobby orchids

What started as a random joke on Facebook, lead to identical wigs at dinner. My friends are all good sports.

Ah…thanks ME! You just have to commit. Then it is great fun. We got some funny looks from the gentleman seated next to us. After awhile you forget you have on a wig. Then you notice the startled looks. LOL!

I’m glad you could join us, too, Betsy. I could tell you were a bit under the weather. Sorry it turned into a full-blown bug.

We’re so glad you could join us.

Feel better soon. Hugs.

LOL, I didn’t even realize that the Cat Eyed glasses Photo said MEOW. What a nice Hostess to take such a good group shot. Thanks again for buying all the wigs. I still chuckle when I think of the looks we were getting by the table of fella’s next to our table. It was a great time and I was so glad I could spend the day with you hon. It’s fun to know exactly where the other photos were taken, I recognize those flowers 😀 Sleepy now too, off to beddy bye, see you at breakfast xoxo Sweet Dreams

I didn’t notice the meow till I posted the pic. How appropriate.

Yes, it was nice of her to take the shots, and to even suggest some special spots in the store. Great fun.

I was just commenting to someone else about the men one table over. LOL. I wonder what they were saying under their breath? We’ll never know.

Success in life is not measured by the things you possess, but by the amount of joy in it. Looks like you are quite wealthy there. Wishing you another year of abundant joy! Happy Birthday. That looked like SOOOOO much fun!!!!!
