Not real happy to admit it, but it happened and there is nothing I can do about it. I am going to have to live with this change in my life. I didn't want to do it, it was completely out of my control. The sad truth is I turned 50 yesterday. The big 5-0! FIF-TEE! Five decades! Only ten years to sixty! I guess I could go on and on but then I may turn this happy occasion into a state of depression.
The kids gave me a surprise dinner at a really nice restaurant, (hey, like I didn't see this one coming).
And what would a birthday party be without the birthday cake that lets everyone know that you have made it half a century!
And of course there is the gifts that truly share with all that your age is timeless, and over time your age is now showing.
A little something for the double chin.
For the saging parts of the body
Even a cane to help me when no one else will to cross the street.
This memorable Birthday party was made possible by my very mature adult children!
They all had a hand in it, along with the grandchildren. We were minus Tony for the celebration, he was out of town for work. But I'm pretty sure he was a part of this.
The candles were blown out cake and ice cream served. A great birthday! Thanks everybody love you all!
And thanks also for the coffee cup to remind me every morning that I am. . . .

What a fun party! Only five more years and you get the senior discount at IHOP!
What a loving family you have to put this together for you.
Wow! 50!!!! Oh yeah,I'm ahead of you by a couple of years and yes there is life after 50. A few little aches and pains to remind you that you aren't 20, 30, or even 40--but life is still good, especially what you have been through this past year. Love you and Happy Birthday!!!
