Halloween Birthday!!!

I am blessed to have a Halloween Birthday. Generally, this means Trick-O-Treating or at least giving out treats at the door. Usually EVERYONE remembers my birthday because it is a holiday. This year, Halloween was on a Sunday which meant that it was celebrated as just my birthday as we don't participate in Trick-O-Treating or the giving of treats on Sunday. Fall Festivals and Trunk-O-Treating had been taken in the days before by the kids and grandkids and I was blessed to be able to go with them. I have the BEST kids and grandkids in the world.

This year for my birthday, I made a Maple Nut Cake...a favorite from my high school years, which I had forgotten all about until just before my birthday. William made my favorite...Chicken Courdon Blue, yum! The rest of the family made the sides and did the decorating, setting up and tearing down. Thanks so much dear family for making my memories so special. This year, I was blessed with an update of my Grandkid Photo Picture on the piano. I also received a Nana Brag Book, tiny enough to be pulled out in an instant, and this year...a special video of the grandkids. It literally brought tears to my eyes. The only thing missing was Michael who did call to wish me a Happy Birthday. Thanks dear family for the special love you bring. You are all so dear!!!
