"They threw a party there from dusk 'till dawn
Seems like everybody knows old sleepy John
He said next time I better bring you along
I'm comin' home to you"
REK
Hama's party was today. It rained but it didn't put a damper on the festivities.
Family. Food. Friends. It was a really nice party. My brother and sis in law Amy really did a good job organizing and people went all out to make Hama's day very special. There was a band, bbq....desserts just lined up AND this beautiful cake my cousin Sandra made. I cannot imagine making anything this pretty:
We are headed to Key West early in the morning. I'm very excited and tired from days of being on the go and trying to get ready for this trip. I finally finished packing a few minutes ago and just need to go wash my hair and call my mother to make sure she knows her instructions for Earl and Eudora...the cats aren't too hard.
So have a great week. I love all my photos from today but I only have time do put up a few.
Cheers!
What a perfect day! I could never find the patience to make such a beautiful cake!
Have fun in the Keys!

What beautiful cakes and happy faces! Love the old homestead too. I just got home after being away for a week. According to my corn, it didn't rain here.

What a wonderful day it turned out to be. Do not think the rain damped anyone's spirits. Aunt Hava looks younger than any 90 year old I know. Thank you for taking the pictures.
