These lovely ladies are enjoying a light repast in the river room. Twila, Olivia, Betty (on sofa) and Jean share the view and meal together. Martie and her little grandson, Mark, came, too, but she prefers to not have her photos published. She was there, could not miss Justin's birthday party, right?
Justin was really hoping Ellen would come so she risked life and limb driving back from the beach in a pouring rainstorm to be there! Her daughter, Ashley Rose, is standing behind Ellen in the doorway. Justin is checking something on his cell phone, of course!
Olivia offered to take a picture of Justin and me as he is opening his birthday cards. This is the better shot of us, although Sarah popped through just as Olivia clicked the photo. I cropped her out, but left a tiny blur of blonde hair in the lower left side. Ashley Rose is again in the background. Justin and I both have had our share of sunshine this season!
Due to the recession, Justin only had four candles on his birthday cake! He was able to blow them out without spitting on it while doing so! Memrie is watching him intently, with such a cute look on her face! Betty can't get over how big she is getting already, looking at 2nd grade already this fall!
