I'm 50!

Yes, it's true....I'm officially "old". I'm half a century old...I'm no longer in my 40's... "over the hill....whatever you'd like to call it....I'm 50!! Yikes. When did that happen?!

My SWEET girls, Kirsten and Kayla, and my cousin Jody threw me a surprise party last Sat. night! It was so much fun! They tried to fool me by saying we were going out to dinner, and I "bought" it for awhile, but then several people said some things that made me "suspicious"...so I knew something else was going on, but wasn't sure what. The party was held at Jody and Bobby's house in San Diego. Here is some of the decor....

Here's McKenna having fun with a balloon.

The BIGGEST surprise was that my sister Becky (on the left) flew in from Charlotte, NC for the party! I had NO idea, so THAT was the big surprise! That's Kirsten in the middle and her hubby Adam on the end...


Me and Jody!


Me and my sweet sister!




Me and my "BFF's"...Bren, Annette and Maureen!

The girls and Jody made tons of yummy food (all my favorites), and we played a silly "Donny Osmond Trivia" game, (made up by Kirsten)....most of you know that I still love my Donny...and if I answered the quetions correctly, I won some Donny" prizes"....a framed poster of him, some lapel buttons, a pillow case with his picture on it, (all bought on Ebay!)...and the grand prize...they got me tickets to see Donny & Marie's show at the Flamingo in Vegas on April 4th! Wow! Another major surprise!
I can't tell you how amazing my girls are!
We all had a great time... HUGE thanks to Kirsten, Kayla, & Jody for giving me possibly the best birthday ever! You don't know how much it meant to me.
Bring on being 50!
