She's 50

She likes to kick and stretchhhhhh and kick, she’s 50! Aunt Sherri turned 50 on the 5th but we threw her a party on Saturday. Everyone was in town (with the exception of Uncle Terry and his family) so it was a great time to surprise her with a party. This was in the planning phase for a bit, prior to their arrival. My cousin Catherine took her and Uncle Michael out and everyone else began the decorating. Black streamers hung all over inside and outside the house. Cake, chips and dip (thanks to Aunt Meredith), black napkins, black forks and black plates sat atop the black table cloth. Everyone dressed in black. Mom sits in a chair and makes her transformation into the Grim Reaper thanks to Jordan, Jared and Elizabeth. She was creepy. Aunt Sherri returns home to find a party waiting for her. V made the best spring rolls and beef. Wes burned a CD with classic songs from her era. Louie, Louie, Billie Jean, Respect, and so on. It was the best party I have been to in a while. We danced on the back porch for hours. Last call was at about 11:45. Ella was still going strong. I was getting fearful that some of the neighbors might call the police. I absolutely love getting together with my family. Here’s to Aunt Sherri..HAPPY BIRTHDAY! You don’t look a day over 29 and I love you very much!
