If you missed the first to posts related to this weekend you can catch up by clicking on the links below.
Nick, his
sisters and his dad put together a beautiful presentation called “Sixty
Facts with Flowers of Yellow for Your Years of Giving”. They
purchased sixty yellow carnations and each answered a series of questions and
stories relating to Barb. After each one was read, one of Barb’s grandsons
would go and put a single carnation into a vase. By the end we got to learn a
lot more about Barb and she had a beautiful bouquet of sixty yellow carnations.
After that she opened her cards and her final gift from us.
It is a pin with
the birthstones of her children and grandchildren. I just love this idea, it is
so unique!
Once the cards were read and Barb opened her gift, the rest of the
night consisted of devouring yummy cake, with a lot of conversation, laughing and
just enjoying each other’s company.
I am so happy with how perfect Barb’s
birthday turned out and I am even more thankful that we were able to be there
to celebrate with her. She is such an incredible woman and we are all very
lucky to have her in our lives.
Happy
Birthday Barb!
