It has almost been a whole year since I have been to the blog. I have decided to make some changes and start doing better. You may see that I have now changed the title of my blog. Maybe this new title will help me write more often.
I just celebrated my 53rd birthday yesterday! I am now over a half century old! That seems really odd to think about! I used to think 53 was quite old, but I have changed my mind.
Last year I was so spoiled when all the kids and grandkids came to celebrate my birthday with me. This year I decided I was just not going to think about having a birthday, because I knew it would be easier since we all wouldn't be together this year. You know it, I was wrong in my thinking because even though not everyone was able to be here in person, I still had a wonderful birthday. The phone calls were all GREAT! Jacob and Tally, and even Maggie came for lunch on Sunday.really had a fun time together. On Monday afternoon my Visiting Teachers stopped in to bring some soup and some goodies and a card. Later that afternoon when Grandpa came home from work he asked if I would enjoy going out to the family room to watch a movie. I thought that sounded like fun. I had just gotten myself settled in the recliner when I noticed a familiar car pull in our driveway, Matt and Cami and their kids came and brought in dinner and a birthday cake and surprised me. Grandpa knew all about it and had been planning it with them. So yes this year I was spoiled too, just in a different way. Oh, yes, I can't forget the many birthday wishes on Facebook. One more birthday wish I just have to mention is; on Sunday my whole Bishopric came to my house with a card and a balloon and sang Happy Birthday to me! Ok, I have one more thing I need to tell you about that happened for my birthday and then I will be through. Grandpa tried to tease me the morning of my birthday. Normally he gives me a card first thing when I wake up. This year he didn't give me one. When I opened up my lunchbox at lunchtime there it was! Silly Grandpa! I sure love him!
The picture I chose to put with this entry is one of the ones that was posted on Facebook. Lisa Miller used to come and play Wii Bowling with me before she moved, so this picture made me smile!
