My 72nd birthday

Hi Kids, 

Yesterday was my 72nd birthday (72 reminds me of "orange and blue in '72") and Huppert 4 squared....which I never really knew what that meant.  That was in the past and this is now.  My birthday was one of my happiest yesterday.  Gary really is with me on redoing the porch and we purchased the porch swing.  It is sort of sitting in the middle of a mess right now, but I can vision it to be in one of our favorite places this summer.  

Beth and Dan and Margie and Scott and Max invited Gary and I to the Cellar restaurant (my favorite) last night for dinner.  I never tire of their charcoaled broiled shrimp and the crisp lettuce.   Max says "is this moist lettuce or dry like ours Mom?"  I love it...almost as much as are "black pancakes ok to eat?"  

After dinner Maggie and Jane joined us for ice cream and cake.  Cake made by Margie and also my favorite....white with white frosting. My gifts were really unique.   I can't describe the inspiration blocks of wood or I would be here all day.   I will say that I find it fun to put a new saying up every so often.   We have made a date for Sat.  for all of us to watch "Juno".  I love Ellen Page and I hope she will become a GREAT actress you won't forget about soon. 

I missed going to the pool this a.m.....but I am going to get a pedicure at 11:15.   I wish I had the nerve to wear the "satin blue" that Beth had on last night.   HMMMM   I think I shall look at the new colors today.   Who cares????

Tomorrow the girls from Geneseo and myself will be going to Peoria for lunch, Macy's and Trader Joes. 

Later Gator, 

Patricia Swanson Vandemore Davison Hansen....WOW....I could be 92 with that resume....Ha Ha!!!!
