SURPRISE!! SURPRISE!!

Today Tom & I went shopping & then out to lunch. Since our church production is being held next weekend (Nov. 30, Dec. 1 & 3) & my b-day is right in the middle of it, Tom took me out to lunch today at one of my fav. places, Kelsey's!! Of course it was delicious as usual. After placing our order, he gave me my present.... new rings to replace my worn out ones. What a surprise!!


When we were almost finished, Tom got a call on his cell-phone... now who has his number? He said someone at the church needed some keys to get in...uh oh.. my suspicions are aroused... but no... not likely.

When we got to the church, there were a lot of cars there of course... production rehearsals/tech stuff should have been there, so why would anyone need Tom's keys?

You guessed it... as we went around the back to park, I saw Dad's car... & knew I was in for a treat. It was great fun & I saw some people I hadn't seen for a while. Great to see everyone there. Thanks to all for making this a memorable day.

I'd post some pictures, but since I didn't know about the party I didn't have my camera on me & I don't have any pictures yet.





My new rings... aren't they beautiful?








Each of the grandchildren brought out a small bouquet of my favourite flowers, carnations (especially the red ones)

Here are all five bouquets together.. what a lovely sight!










Tom got me these lovely red roses.

This past weekend we helped Christine move again. She & Brianna are moving from a townhouse, which is not in a nice area & has not been kept up into an apartment which is in a smaller building & has been well taken care of. As with a lot of older buildings, there are some things that are worn out but still usable. They will be just down the street from Jenn & family. Brianna will be going to the same school as Zachary & Sarah, so she will at least know 2 people!!

During this time we are still keeping up with our rehearsals for the church play.
