Mum's "Diamond Jubalee"


Happy Birthday Mumsy! It's so nice that Mom's birthday is the day after Christmas, because everyone is in town to get together for her big day! Here we all are taking Mom out to the Olive Garden to celebrate her special day. 


It was Mom's "Diamond Jubalee" as we like to call it. Mom's friend Sister Johnson from England said that the Queen of England called her 60th birthday her diamond jubalee and so they should too. It does make it sound very fancy.

Ben and Rebekah sure can through a party. We all had a great time celebrating our wonderful Mom. Jordan had a blast with his cousin Heath. I'm so glad he's got a boy cousin his age to play with.


We all helped to make a big surprise present for Mom this year. A long time ago I had gotten the siblings to write down some of their favorite memories of Dad and then I made it into a book for him to have. This year I felt the impression that Mom should have one too. So I coordinated with siblings to write down some of their favorite memories of Mom. We gave her the book with family pictures at the party. She was so surprised! I am so thankful for the families help in making this special present possible. We love you Mumsy!
