Two years ago with the advent of the pandemic, Sue had to settle for a drive-by salute from the family. Last year, with yet another phase of COVID raging, we suffered through a cold garage party. This year, with everyone well vaccinated (although the kids will just get their boosters today), we had a more comfortable get-together.
As we waited for the pizza to come, Sue opened gifts. I don't know where my head was, but I didn't think to take pictures. But this is an image of the front of the card that I made.
Shauna made Sue don a funny hat, and we did take a round of photos.
Instead of the traditional cake, we had some of Sue's favourite cookies: maple with walnut and white chocolate.
Ha ha...birthday presents shall remain unknown! Great shots with the hat though, especially the pair of y'all!
ReplyDeleteI love the hat and how stylishly she's posing! You do realize that future generations will think that's a regular hat and wonder that she would wear such funny gear!
ReplyDeleteThose are great photos and how wonderful to be able to celebrate in person. Those cookies sound delicious! I still kick myself for not buying any maple products when I was in Montreal. So many specialty shops with maple items that I now want!
ReplyDeleteNice to see you all together to celebrate Sue's birthday and sure she got some great gifts that she will enjoy.
ReplyDeleteGood looking family!
ReplyDeleteGood that you were able to get together.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Sue! And what a lovely family you have. Love the birthday hat. :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Sue! So great to be able to get together again for a proper celebration!
ReplyDeleteLove the hat! Say Happy Birthday to Sue.
ReplyDeleteThose cookies sound magnificent!
ReplyDeleteSue is so gorgeous and you both make a beautiful couple. Danica has inherited all their beauty genes. Your grandkids are getting so TALL. Happy Birthday, Sue!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Sue. Those cookies sound good, and I bet there great with coffee.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Awww! How nice. Happy birthday! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a great card! Rick had a hat like that when he turned 60! We passed it on. Love the photos -- it looks like such a wonderful happy day. Happy Birthday to lovely Sue!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely event! Danica is growing! You folks have such fun.
