I've had to keep the social media/blogs..etc a bit quiet.  I was so afraid of blowing the surprise of all of my mother in law's family coming in this year from all parts to be here for her 80th Birthday...though it's not till Saturday official we celebrated it with this Thanksgiving meal...My youngest daughter had her Friend Sandy make the cake and my other daughter made the banner and we just all pitched in to make this a very special memory for her.  Got photo books done and will send everyone one...We Love you Eileen/Sis/Ma/Grandma/Close Friend.  We had good weather and safe travels...our bellies are full and we are so very grateful for family and friends.
