Birthday Girl (Me)



Ashlee and Lace helped me celebrate my birthday yesterday...we had planned on going to a movie, but it was packed.  Then we didn't have a clue what to do and wandered around...and around...and around Merced as each decision led to a closed store, multicultural center or a roadblock (literally).  It was Monday and a lot of places close on Monday.  We finally did most of our shopping at Pier 1.  Lace and I modeled cute aprons.  Then we went out for dinner where Cliff joined us later.  I got sung to (the girls thought it would embarrass me...NOT!), and a free chocolate mousse.  Can you believe in all of my 56 years I had never had a chocolate mousse before?  It was heavenly!  Perfect way to end my special day!

Christmas Evening 2010

Balloons help fill up the time until dinner!
The grillmaster had steak on the new grill and the shrimp on the old.
Zelma, Velma and Fred joined us...only one casualty!
Opening gifts...Gilbert trying on Margo's chef's outfit.
Hope everyone had a great Christmas!
