Kathy Celebrated

… and hopefully still is!

This card fit right in with our weather yesterday,
on her special day, but not today.
It is FREEZING here.

I wish she had sunshine
and flowers the day after her birthday.
Perhaps the picnic can be postponed
until a warmer day surfaces.

Happy birthday, Kathy!

This was the best day

My daughter and son-in-law
are celebrating their anniversary today.

I cannot believe it's already been 26 years!
Yes - 26 years ago,
we were in Anchorage, Alaska,
gettin' it done!

The three of us stayed at a B&B
and I remember her being soooooooo
protective of her wedding dress.

"Be careful."
"Don't step on it."

And it went on and on and on and on.

Well, they married,
had a brief little celebration at a parishioner's home
and then out to dinner.

I dropped them off at the hotel,
kept the car and went back to our B&B.

In the morning when I picked them up
and they came out,
she had her wedding dress
all rolled up in a ball and under her arm
as if she was carrying a football.

It really was THE BEST DAY.

Happy anniversary, you two!

I knew it would eventually come in handy

I've been saving this image for a long time.
Something told me I'd eventually
have the opportunity to use it on a card.

Today was the day!
A police officer married another police officer.

I hope the Mr. and Mrs. enjoyed it.
Best wishes!

It's always more funner to have a birthday on a weekend

… more funner, huh?

Well, at least I think it is!!

Joanna celebrated yesterday
and my friend, Mia,
gifted her one of my cards.

Isn't this entryway inviting?

Celebrate all month long!!!

Is this perfect or what?

I searched and searched for the perfect image
for a Master Trainer.
How'd I do?

Dee celebrated his birthday yesterday
and I know his family made it
a special day for him.

Happy birthday, Dee!

It used to be a big deal - not so much any more

Eight years between my sister and me.
Growing up, it was a really big deal.
Big difference.
Especially during those younger years!!!

But now that she's caught up to me in age
(just kidding!)
those eight years don't seem to matter.

Yesterday she celebrated a birthday.
(Told you she's catching up.)

Tucked inside this card is a little
something-something.
Wonder how she'll spend it at Michael's!?!

Happy belated birthday, Dodie!

PS - I didn't forget.
The crazy post office wanted more postage
and the card was returned to me.
DANG!
And it fit just fine into the template
given to me by a postal worker.
What gives?

Let's celebrate an engagement and two birthdays

I just love how the heart frames
these joyous balloons
for the engaged couple.
As many happy years you can squeeze in,
that's my wish for you.

Up next is Tigger.
Nan loves this little character!
So why not have him on her birthday card?

This next birthday card
somehow got pushed to the back row
and never made it to the blog.
Karen celebrated in August.
So sorry this never got on here.
Too many irons in the fire.

Best wishes to the happy couple
and happy birthday to Nan and Karen.
