Dinner with a Birthday Theme!!!

All the cute ladies 72-94 years, all of you look great:)
My mom is 74 almost 75 and I think she is so beautiful, inside and out. We have her invite all her friends and treat them like queens. We started this last year. Last year we did a really elegant dinner but this year I wanted it to be a birthday party for everyone.

Carefree smile:-)


Make a wish mom

Cherished moments:-)


We had everyone make a wish and sang "Happy Birthday"


You can't have a birthday without presents. They each received cake pops, loaf of carrot bread, hand embroidered (cupcake) dish towels, bracelets made by Stac & Ipo :-)


The dinner was yummy!!! We had Cesar salad, zuppa toscana soup, bread sticks, fruit bowl, lasagna, and pumpkin spice cheesecake. It was really fun for me and Don, we made everything from scratch except the noodles...LOL


Look how much they look alike... It was a blessing Stacie brought Ipo to help out. She helped fan the oven smoke away from all 13 ladies. We forgot to put foil under the pans of lasagna, thank goodness we caught it early. I think the ladies have lost their sense of smell because they didn't say a word...LOL... The dinner was a lot of planning and work but the joy it gave to my mom was worth it:-)
