Mom's party was a tremendous success. There were at least 150 people (silly me forgot to have a guest book) who attended and Mom was so thrilled and shocked. She kept telling me that no one would come.
The first couple arrived at exactly 1:00 PM and the last left at 5:00 PM. It truly was a wonderful day and we got to see people we hadn't seen for years. Some of them we didn't recognize until we talked with them.
The weather was cold, but the sun was shining and we didn't get any snow. A perfect December day.
Mom's birthday is actually December 19, so if you still want to send a card you have time.
She has received lots of them from many of you and she is so pleased. Thank you!!!!!!
We had the party early in the month, due to the busy Christmas season and Indiana's December weather.
Thank you again for all the warm wishes to my Mom!

What an undertaking for you but I'm sure your Mom was thrilled and what a turnout. I'm sure you'll smile each time you think of her birthday party. Hugs Carolyn
Ooooh, such a nice picture of you and your mom. What a special day that was. I'm sure there's a birthday album in the works (it's a must, of course).
150 people !! That was wonderful celebration for your Mon and a great picture of her. I am sure you and she are exhausted today! Get some rest.
Sounds like the party was a hit! That's a tribute to your Mom and all her kids! So glad the weather held for you. I had my annual Open House yesterday, and the ground was covered with snow - this morning! Like you, I'm so glad it waited.
I'm glad your Mom had such a successful party! What a nice thing for you all to do for her.
You're so lucky and blessed to still have your mom here. What a wonderful idea for her celebration. God bless your whole family and you for all you do for everyone, Joan. You're a peach. Huggies, Syl xxxooo
