We had a great trip and I’m so happy to be home! The birthday/ retirement party was planned by my cousin’s daughter and she did such a good job. We – the seven of us that came from many states away – were all in the kitchen. When we walked out one at the time, my cousin-in-law burst into tears. She just seemed totally overwhelmed that we had all come so far for her. That made us all feel good.
The next day their daughter had something ‘special’ planned for us. What do you think…
It’s not something I’d have thought of, but we had such fun. And we found out we are all fantastic painters!
We had lunch together and then dinner was catered, BBQ and towers of desserts and we all filled out cards to tell them both the best parts of retirement – boy, I could have written another book to tell them all the good parts!
I can’t say our partying was wild but we all really did have a good time.
Laughing at Windy's comment lol. I'm so glad you had such a wonderful time PK. Your cousin's daughter did a fantastic job, I wouldn't have thought of painting, or the cards. What fabulous ideas!
