23 Jan 2010 – Slumber Party

Nancy arrived safely after 9hrs drive. Thank you for being here. Katy‘s 8th bday slumber party with a chocolate cake (dog-shaped) and pizzas were huge success. Movies projected on the wall was a big hit for the grandmothers, aunt, Ellie and John 🙂 The girls were just too busy being major drama-queens! And the parents were busy with the drama!! The weather was too cold for outdoor roasting of mush-mellows.

This morning they get pancakes for breakfast and will be picked up by 1000hrs. Tonight is the celebrations for me completing 60years of life and tomorrow will be Sophie‘s baptism! Admiration and congratulations to Linn who is doing such great jobs being daughter, sister, mother, educator, friend; and to Jeff for being the best son-in-law, father, doctor and friend. As the saying goes about you can choose your friends but not your family, but in my case fate has been good to choose my family as my friends too.

The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other’s life – Richard Bach
