Awesome Cake at the Nystroms<\/p><\/div>
\nI’ve had an amazing\u00a0birthday weekend! WOW!
\nLast Friday we enjoyed dinner with good friend’s Marty and Jeanne Nystrom and Jeff and Sarah Jones.
\nA strange wind storm knocked the power out but we managed with lanterns until the power came back on.
\nMy Bestie Jeanne always knows how to make a girl feel special.
\nSaturday I enjoyed the sunshine and worked in my yard.
\nThe flowers Steve planted for Mother’s day are growing and I’ve added more with my birthday money from my father-in-law.
\nMy yard is looking better every day.
\nWhile we watched a movie downstairs, Steve decorated our family room. He’s been teasing me because it took me a couple trips upstairs to notice that huge balloon!

\nSunday, my “official” birthday was my favorite day. Church with Pastor Jude preaching. Zane and Kelsey over for lunch. Looking at their photos from England and Ireland was great fun.
\nWe\u00a0laughed over the goofy photos we took with my new iPad!

Happy Birthday to Me!<\/p><\/div>
\nChocolate cake with chocolate frosting.
\nIt was the birthday that kept on going with dinner at the Halvorson’s.
\nBarbara and Elling Halvorson were home so I enjoyed hanging with them. Yummy BBQ with Barbara’s potatoe salad.
\nElling led a beautiful round of Happy Birthday as they presented me with yet another\u00a0yummy cake.

\nMore laughs with the photo booth on my iPad with Rod, Randy, John and Kent.
\nMonday we had a Memorial Day BBQ with Jeff and Sarah Jones.
\nRay and Laura Clavero joined us. All the Nystrom’s were there too.

Ray and Jeff - Kings of the Grill<\/p><\/div>
\nIt was a battle for King of the Grill between Jeff’s filet mignon and Ray’s rib-eye steak.
\nIt was hard to go back to work on Tuesday after all the celebrating.
\nI am truly blessed.
\nMay the God of HOPE fill YOUR birthday with JOY and PEACE and LOVE as you TRUST in HIM.
\nGod Bless Your Heart,
\nGigi<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
