Today is my mother’s 75th birthday.
You may have seen the previous post, and know that we took her to Las Vegas to celebrate her birthday. Our goal was to celebrate her at least 75 times during the course of the weekend. We toasted with Champagne, had cake, we sang, and toasted some more…
She emailed me when she got home and said, “I think you all said happy birthday more than 75 times.”
This photograph of Joyce was taken in 1963 at my Nana & Papa’s 50th Wedding Anniversary party. Here, she was making a toast to her in-laws. We made the photo into a card and decorated it with her favorite – butterflies.
As kids, whenever we would ask how old she was, she would always say 29. So…
Joyce turns 29…
…for the 47th time!
Happy Birthday Ma!
We Love You.

A MESSAGE FROM JOYCE:
Hi Lor
Yes I have seen the comments and they just about knocked me over. I find it hard to believe so many people who don’t even know me took the time to wish me a happy birthday in such a sweet way and I thank them all. Now that’s the frosting on the cake!! Especially after such a wonderful weekend in Las Vegas.
Love you
Ma
So sweet. What a great photo and card! Can I have a bite of that cake?
It sounds like it was a beautiful birthday. You mom was so lovely at 29, and I’m sure she is just as lovely at 75.
Mom Joyce is very lucky to have such a wonderful Lori Lynn family!
Happy Birthday Joyce!
Happy birthday to your mum. It sounds like you celebrated it in wonderful style!
