HAPPY BIRTHDAY FEBRUARY PEEPS

Posted By on February 4, 2010

Brother Dan in Orange

Happy birthday February 15 to my brother Dan – in Texas.  His real name is DANNY and he can thank me, his darling sister, for that, because I was given the honor and privilege of naming him.  My mother claims that I wanted to name him DANNY BOY but I do not remember that part!  Here we are in Kansas City in December helping my parents move into their new house!  I think he wore that bright orange shirt into Walmart while we were there….I wonder if anyone put his picture on the PEOPLE OF WALMART website!!  (He had on some pretty wild orange PJ pants with it earlier!!)  LOL

And on February 18th there are two birthdays to celebrate – HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my quilting friend Patsy…..doesn’t she look happy here at the CUTTING BEE in January!  For sure – we were all very happy!

and happy birthday on the 18th to my nephew Tyler……he is a nice guy and a clown at the same time.  I think he looks a bit like HUGH GRANT!  I have a great picture of Tyler making a SCARRY face but since it is his birthday I decided to be nice!  Tyler is going to be a dad for the 3rd time on or around May 2nd….YEAH TYLER AND AMANDA!  I just love new babies in the family…..and I would like it even MORE if I could say girl or boy – but this time it is going to be a surprise!  🙂

February 23 my DD in California is having a birthday………hope it is super special too because she is super special!  Anyone who gives me six grandangels is SUPER DUPER SPECIAL!!  🙂  Jan is the best gift my DH Max ever gave me!!!   I am sending CYBER HUGS!

My cousin Janie has a birthday Feb 24th!!   Here we are in July in Kansas City – she gave my Thimbeberries Quilt a good home.  It is always fun to have your quilts find a home where they can be loved!    I have lots of fun memories growing up visiting Janie – riding horses – eating the best homemade vanilla ice cream in the entire WORLD – and experiencing country life!  I don’t know if Janie remembers this but I remember going to church with our Grandma Albertson and I can still hear Grandma singing those Methodist hymns – in a very loud booming voice!  🙂  Janie is also a QVC fan – like me – must be genetic – our dads are brothers!

And finally my DSIL Greg has a birthday on February 26th….the father of my three Virginia grandangels……and I still think he is cool even though he got me a LIFE SIZE BARBIE DOLL FOR CHRISTMAS and scares me by making her talk like an alien when I am not expecting it!  In fact Greg scares me EVEN WITHOUT the Barbie doll!  🙂  And I still go to watch him run and cheer for him – yes I do.

My dear friend Shirley in CA has a  birthday in February too and UNFORTUNATELY I DO NOT HAVE A PICTURE OF HER.  Can you BELIEVE THIS!   Ok – so my mission on my next trip to CA is to fix this !!!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY FEB. 28th SHIRLEY!!!!!!!  I miss working puzzles, reading GREAT BOOKS and eating black bean soup with you!!!  Thank goodness for e-mail!!!!

And this is a BIRTHDAY BLOG ENTRY – but I just had to add one tiny little thing………

 I JUST FOUND OUT THAT CATHERINE AND JOHN are celebrating 33 years of wedded bliss on February 19th.  That is SO SPECIAL.  I don’t have a picture of John – but imagine him by Catherine’s side looking very happy.  Happy Anniversary to my Missouri Buddy and Virginia BFF.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY CATHERINE AND JOHN

  1. You are so totally remarkable and ever so kind to remember all your dearheart buddies on their special day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And to remember our anniversary, you are such the treasure to our hearts. I think John and you have a special bond that originated when you and Max came to our rescue and adopted not 1, not 2 but THREE furry babies and was most assuredly re-enforced while waiting at the emergency room at Johnston-Willis hospital………….. You are our hero and savior, whata’ gal, whata’ pal, simply a dreamy BFF, bless you baby…………..
