Happy 80th Mom!

Filed under: Family Stuff

My dear Mother turned 80 on February 12.  With yesterday being Family Day, we decided to get together to celebrate the occasion up at Mom’s nursing home.  Almost everyone from the family was there; even the lovely Trish came along- heck, we all consider her part of the family anyway!  It was a chance to catch up on things, make sure Mom got her birthday treats and to sample the delicious goodies brought by Sisters June & Dianne.  A great time was had by all!

 

Check out the pictures taken by the official photographer, Trish.

  1. Hey Tony, Feb. 12 is my Dad’s birthday too. We all (18 of us I think)went to the Chinese Buffet around James and Stone Church. We had a great time. Nice to think the Aquilinas were doing the same. Oh yeah, only we did it on Sunday the 15th, while you were on the 16 but the link is the 12th so that’s what counts.
    Take care

    Eric

  2. Hello Eric, thanks for your kind words! Please pass on a Happy Birthday to your father for me. Good choice for the food! It’s always nice getting together with family for any reason.

  3. Belated Birthday wishes to both Mom and Eric’s Dad! The pics are wonderful - Trish did a marvelous job!
    Is mom really that little or is it just because she was sitting beside Tony?
    Sorry Tone, After that heavyweight comment, I had to say it!

  4. Yes, Mom is that small. With old-age (and cold water) comes shrinkage! And what was wrong with that heavyweight comment? Heavyweight as in Mohammed Ali & George Foreman-2 classics!
