Happy Birthday Mamasona!!

To our wonderful Mom and Nana, Linda Louey. Her name is Linda but we all affectionately call her Linda Louey or Mamasona :)

Mom, Happy Birthday, we love you so much and hope that the year to come brings you all that you wish for. I know that you do not like to see the years adding up but believe us when we tell you that you are not (AHEM!)__ years old, you are (AHEM!)__ years wise :)

Love,
Your loving children and grandchildren,

Lori, Marc, Justin, Judy, Katie Starr and Ethan
Jane, Steve and Sam

PS We had a birthday party here at our house for Mom tonight and all of her fav people were there with the exception of my sister and her family who were very missed. Here are a couple of pics from the party this evening.

Hanging out and talking at the dinner table before the arrival of the cake

For the DD it is all about the candles and the singing!

Nana stealing a kiss from Katie but it looks like Katie is about to bite Nana's nose :)

the first cut for good luck

Katie is great at sharing

and Ethan returns the kindness by wiping Katie's mouth for her

Judy, Justin and my Pop. Justin has the scruffy look because he refuses to shave until finals are over and he is presently in the midst of law school finals hell.

Finishing the evening watching Dora. Notice Ethan has 'Backpack" on!
