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.

Lori, It was great fun to be part of the group at Fromagerie. I look forward to your trip back east in December us all to do it again. Our table is waiting! Susan
Awwww! Happy Birthday to you mom! I love that you celebrated her special day 75 times. Awesome!

Happy birthday to your mamma! How wonderful to celebrate such a monumental birthday with your family in Vegas!! I had a little chuckle over the "29th birthday." My son went through a phase where he was asking my age all the time & I finally told him the truth: All women stop aging at 29. Your mom sounds like a gem – certainly worth 75+ toasts to her birthday.

I hope she had the best birthday. How fun to celebrate in Vegas and all those times!
