Pet Birthdays
Comments (23)My dog is planning on having his thrid birthday party next Saturday. A local place that does doggie daycare has a special for renting out the place. Its great. He had his second birthday party there last year. Much nicer than his first birthday party which we had at a local dog park. That was cold and much too muddy for it to be fun. The indoor place is great because the dogs can run around and play, which they seem to be missing with the long winter. We just got about 15 inches of snow this past weekend, so the indoor play time will be a welcome break. The place provides doggie birthday hats, which usually only stay on long enough for a picture to get snapped. All the guests also get doggie bags to take home which include a little rawhide treat, a tennis ball, and a few snacks. I haven't made a cake yet (but if you have any good recipes, let me know), but I do usually bring FrostiPaws for everyone. Digby, my old english sheepie, gets a few presents, usually a new stuffed animal, rawhide, or chew toy. Its a fun time for everyone....See MoreDo you share your birthday with anyone famous?
Comments (48)momcat, My SIL has three grandchildren born in November. Their birthdays are Nov, 22, 23 and 25. The 22 and 25 are brother and sister. Each was induced the Monday of Thanksgiving week, each born in different years. I think its done more so the doctor can be home for the holiday than the mom. My niece that has the child born on the 23 is expecting in October. She said she did not want another child due in November....See MoreBirthday gift ideas
Comments (15)I gave myself a party for my 40th. The guests were given suggested comments, such as "My God, I thought you were 22!" Most of the gift were gags, and we had loads of fun. My friends gave me a surprise party for my 50th. My dad had just died that month, and I wasn't expecting any sort of celebration. But it was a great party. We all sang around the piano, and had a happy time. For my 60th, a friend threw me a jazz party with musicians, including a fabulous singer. Never had anyone sung "Happy Birthday" to me in quite that way! For my 70th last year, my kids gave me a surprise cocktail party at an old mansion. Somehow none of my friends leaked it, and once again I was completely surprised. They even brought in my BFF from Wisconsin. The evening was emotional and elegant, and I'll never forget it. I have so many wonderful memories of these events--for me, better than any "thing" I could have been given....See MoreWhat did you do on your 60th birthday?
Comments (53)Well. I didn't get a wine Safari! But a year and a month (or two) AFTER my 60th, DH and I finally went to Lake Geneva, just as I hoped for last year. We went to a different part of the lake than the tourist town, but had a nice sandwich (seriously, hands-down THE best chicken wrap I ever had, FRESH-cooked chicken, I watched him slice it, at this little hole-in-the-wall spot) walked a bit of the lake path, some fabulous ice cream, then drove around the lake. It was so nice, though I didn't get my shandy on a patio. So, since it's only an hour or so away, I went a few weeks later with a girlfriend! We had lunch and a shandy overlooking the lake, shopped, and just had fun. Happy Birthdays to all!...See Moreyeonassky
