My 79th Birthday

New Year's Eve
2016
my 79th birthday....
 My birthday morning started with plenty of sunshine
and fluffy buttermilk pancakes with Plum Jelly.
 I was served coffee in my cute little mug...
 showing off two new items around our Summer House...

a pair of the cutest wire and wooden baskets...


 I am using those cute baskets to show off a few of my
 HOME COMPANION vintage magazines...
that was my favorite mag in the whole world and I
felt really sad when they quit publishing it.


 and next is that ADORABLE tea kettle you see on the table..
My best friend gave it to me for my birthday and I am
really proud of it...


 It's from Pioneer Woman's line.
I am loving the bright colors so so much.

 We all went to eat Birthday Lunch at Rosa's....
one of my very favorite places to eat.


 Drew and Jessamy here from Oregon
and I am sooo happy they were here to share my birthday.


Here's Jessamy, Deeds, Lacey Jean and Bailey
at the long table....


 Our handsome and sweet son, David
and daughter in luv, Kathy...



Mr. Sweet, looking good in black...



 The cutest little sleep shirt....


 ....how perfect is THIS sleep shirt full of 
CHAMPAGNE 
for a New Year's Eve birthday girl...!


 I love it...
we are going to a New Year's Eve party tonight
and I really want to wear it with leggings and boots
but since it's a SLEEP SHIRT,
I'll just wear it to bed tonight....


 ...hugs for Bailey...
and you can barely see Ethan, Lacey's love, there on the left.




OOO BOY....

Starbucks and Amazon
gift cards...








and a bottle of my favorite BLACKBERRY wine....


Thank you, family, for giving me a birthday I will never forget.
I love you all so much...
Love, bj

  2. What a wonderful birthday. Sorry I missed sending you a card. Sometimes my memory fails me. It is such a special time when all the family gets together and has such a fun time. I used to drink Mogen David wine, but gave it up for eggnog. Love that stuff. Without the strong stuff. Braumns is the best to me. Glad you had a wonderful day with family. May you be blessed with many more.

  7. Oh you are the cutest thing! No wonder Mr. Sweet chose you and that you two have such a good-looking family. I love all the photos and I really like the photo of your son and his lovely wife. Someone was doing a really good job with the camera. Hope that you will have had a wonderful New Year's Eve party. (I think you'd look fabulous wearing that nightshirt. Who would have to know? Besides everyone in the family.) Happy Birthday, BJ!

  12. Happy Birthday and may 2017 be filled with much happiness and love! BTW, when telling your age, I'd suggest you say 79-going-on-21 as with your energy and enthusiasm, that birthday age doesn't give an accurate picture of you!! Hugs, Jackie

  13. Looks like a FABULOUS birthday party, as befits you! Love that champagne nightshirt especially -- so appropriate!

  14. It looks like a totally fabulous celebration -- which of course, it was! Here's to a fun-filled, creative and joyful year! Let the birthday celebrations continue for a long while!

  15. Hi BJ ... so happy that you had a wonderful birthday celebration with your family. Love your shirt. I hope you "dressed" it up with leggings and boots and wore it to your party. The design would be perfect for the party. I think some of the sleep-wear items are so cute and suitable for day-time wear. I have two tops that I really enjoy wearing and no one knows the difference. Have a great year .... I know you will.
    Hugs,
    Audrey Z.

  37. Happy Birthday BJ!! Your dinner party at Rosa's looks like it was so much fun and I love the gifts you received.

  43. I missed your birthday, sweet friend. It looks like you had quite a celebration. I've been caring for my dear mother who is nearing the end of her journey so I haven't been able to keep up with my blog friends. Belated happy birthday wishes to you!

Way too much spam and people commenting that are stealing my space to post nonsense so.....no comments allowed.
So sorry but I have no other choice.
I love my blogging friends and most of all my family but these spam prone people are so rude and selfish have made my blogging not nearly as much fun..
