Birthday Celebration!!

[Janet]

We all went out for Mom's birthday.

The first two pics of course are Mother. You can tell she was very happy and having a great time. The next one is of me, Ricky and Rick and then the last is Mom with me in the middle, my younger brother Brad on the left (w/glasses) and then my older brother. He never takes a good picture....looks like an old grouch...LOL

We didn't think to take a picture of Mom and her kids until after she had changed into her gown and had hooked up to dialysis.

Violet looks like she had a good time for her birthday!! I'm glad that all of you got together because, as a mother, I love it when all of my kids are here. I'm sure that in it's self was a great present!!!

Nice picture of your family too. It's always different seeing you with your gray hair and it seems like Rick is getting a little gray too in his beard. Not that I can say much......Glen and I are both more gray as well.

It's also a good picture of you and your brothers. I can't remember.....is Brad the youngest or are you? Anyway.....you'll be glad to have the pictures of all of you together.

Tell Violet that I send my love and Happy Birthday!!!!!

Great pics Janet! Your Mom looks so good. If I didn't know she had health problems, I would have never guessed it by the way she looks. People say the same thing about my Dad.

I'm glad you all spent time together. I bet you guys had a wonderful time:)

Janet, the pictures are wonderful!!! Your mom looks so good. Just like Paula, I would never dream your mom had health problems, she looks so good!! She is almost the same age as my mom and she looks much better than my mom who has no health problems to speak of! Ironic!

I really love seeing pictures of everyone, thanks so much for sharing!

Janet, I agree with everyone else, your mom looks great!!! Looks like she had a very nice b-day. Great pic's of everyone

What great pictures! Mom does look well! You really would never know she had health issues. She sure is happy to have her family around her!

You, Rick and Ricky are such a beautiful family! He is such a handsome young man!

It is so good that you all had a party for her, and got to see each other on such a happy day.

Thanks everyone. For the last week, Mom has felt really good. She's talking of going to Florida, but no one will take her. She said she'll just drive herself down. Mom would also have to load her car and we put the word out that if someone helps her....we will hunt them down!!!

I suggested she fly down for a few weeks and see everyone, check on her place and just rent a car. But noooooo, she wants her own car. She can hardly see over the windshield now...LOL.

Plus she's wanting a brand new car. She's never had one and wants one if she can have the payments around $200 a month. Told her we didn't know if that would be possible without having it stretched out for quite a few years...and she said "I don't care, I'll be dead by then and they won't get their money". Can you believe her? She is such an onry booger! ...LOL

Janet your mother looks radiant she just glows. Like everyone said if you didnt tell us that she has health issues you never know. God Bless her she has a good outlook on life. Going to Fla and wanting a new car. The photos are great you all look wonderful.. I wished your mom a Happy Birthday on fb , I am glad that she enjoyed!

[gja1000]

Oh your mom is just TOOO MUCH! Her outlook is fabulous, her common sense is....well a little "off". LOL! A new car might be a fine idea, but driving to Florida is NOT! :eek:

Diana I almost forgot to answer your question. I'll be 55 in March. Brad (with glasses) is the baby and is 52. Jerry is 8 years older than me...he'll be 63 in September. Never thought I'd have brothers that old....:D
