CHEERS to LIFE... PARTIES, PARTY HATS... BIRTHDAYS... cousins, friends, and wonderful family! This is my cousin Gwen and me on our deck last monday at our little PARTY CELEBRATION! Lately there have been a lot of activities going on around here creating so much fun in our warm summer weather. It makes me feel like my life is like an on gong PARTY! A week ago we had Brian's friend, Steve, from Tuscon, here for a week. On the weekend they attended a wedding in Waskesiu. Steve treated Brian and me to a great supper at Earle's on Sunday night and was on his way home again, Monday. Later on Monday we had a brief visit from my niece, Emily, nephew, Alec, and their mom, Gail along with their friend, Rachel, before they headed off to the lake. We hosted an early Birthday Party for Beau on Monday with a barbeque and cupcakes and presents. We also had my cousin, Gwen who celebrated her birthday on the 7th and with Beau's on the 8th... they almost share their special day! Jana, Nels, and the kids were off to a week at the lake on Tuesday morning. My good buddy, Lynne from Regina came for a few days of girlfriend bonding with me then as well. We did lots of shopping, coffeeing, eating out , going for walks, drinks on the patio, watching Olympics and just catching up in general. We always have so much fun when ever we re-unite! We have the common bond of being grandmas...and love to shop for little treasures at Dollarama, especially for our wee ones... and this trip was no exception... we were definitely the "DOLLARAMA- GRAMMAS!" Yesterday, brother Brian popped by and shared a lunch with Lynne and me, as well as mowing our lawns for me, too. He is a good bro to have! Lynne was on her way back to Regina early afternoon yesterday. Last night I was invited to share appies and drinks on the roof top patio of Athena with my 2 sisters-in-law, Bev and Brenda. All food and beverages are half price from 7-9 on thursdays...and last night was so beautiful out...fun times! Today I was thinking a trip to the gym might be needed after all the celebrating I have been doing, but opted out to take Shuffle for a walk and in stead was invited to my friend Ella's for a coffee. She has a lovely yard, and we enjoyed our little visit. I was just leaving Ella's when I got a call on my cel phone from my friend Brenda. She just returned from the World Baton Championship in France, last night. She wanted to catch up with me over a lunch... so my party festivities just continued on as we enjoyed tasty WRAP on the patio at Alexander's.... I feel as though the PARTY spirit is not WRAPPED up yet... in fact my whole Life feels like an ongoing PARTY! I have often shared just how blessed I feel to have so many good circles of friends and family to share my life with... and simply PARTY ON! My life seems like a PARTY all summer long... There's always something going on, just like a real good song! Whether it is time I share with loved ones oh so dear, Or with the friends from far away, who do not live as near. Birthday celebrations, cupcakes and delights, Shopping and enjoying life, morning , noon, and nights! Summer sunshine everywhere, warms me from the start, And makes me very grateful and happy in my heart! Life's a celebration with all I choose to do... I feel very lucky, and love to share with you! |
