I am grateful for my friends. We met on Tuesday this week for Cheri's birthday at Chateau Elan in Brazelton, GA - that city used to be own by Kim Basinger - not anymore though.

MY FIVE THINGS TO BE GRATEFUL FOR ON SUNDAY!


Thank you Cheri for sending me this video - I love Nick!

Birthday girl Cheri - Sandie - Sue - Debbie - Denise - Babs - and 4 girls didn't make it - they were sick.

I wish you a wonderful Sunday.

Our pastor is sick, so (on a day's notice) I lead worship this morning. It was good.

Janie said...

I like birthdays for other people…

What a nice group of friends to have help celebrate it for your friend, including you.

Seriously I don't mind birthdays for me either. Last year I wanted to have a party for myself, but had no energy to do so at the time. Maybe this next year.

Friends are the best. Looked like you all had a wonderful time!

Granny Annie said...

Great group. Know you had fun. I have to ask about the four friends that were absent due to illness...
Did they all have the same thing?

Nick video is hard to imagine.

Arkansas Patti said...

Now that looks like a great Birthday party.
So sorry 4 didn't make it but it was thoughtful of them not to spread the germs. Hope they are feeling better.
