I am 5, OH!

Today is my birthday. My 50th birthday. The big five-O. I don't FEEL like what I thought 50 would feel like (i.e. "OLD").
In fact, I feel better now, than I did when I was 30. I think the girls have something to do with it.

Yesterday Sue and Mel and Libby threw me a party. By tradition (ok only the 2nd time we have done this, but traditions have to start somewhere), We scratched out the zero and we had a party for a 5 year old. Everyone had a great time and I got really cool 5 year old type gifts (crayons, coloring books, water pistols, play-do, and someone gave me 5 dollars)

I don't know how it happened, but NO ONE thought about taking in pictures of the party. *SIGH*




I had asked Sue ages ago to take my birthday off (I get to see her more AND She gets a 4 day weekend) and I thought it would be cool to take Libby and Mel to the Oregon Coast to get their 1st look at the ocean. So we all went to Bandon and walked down to the beach. Mommy and Daddy had a great time and I think the girls were in awe of Ocean.

All in all, This has been the best birthday ever.
