90th Birthday

My husband's aunt recently celebrated her 90th birthday and they had a nice party for her.  Two of her favorite things are donuts and wine and there you have the theme.  

She embraced the whole party with the spirit that she has embraced her life.  Her family (4 daughters and a son) gave her the sash, crown, and boa to wear and she wore it proudly. The girls all had outfits on that donuts on them.  Here she is pictured with her two nephews (my BIL and HWNSNBP).  

There was a donut display board and we each came home with a package of powdered sugar donuts as favors.  We all played a little game of The Price Is Right 1929 ..... do you know what a gallon of gas or milk went for back then?  Not many did.

One of her grandson's and a family friend rewrote the lyrics to "Forever Young" and had us all in stitches.  And she in turn, got up to thank everyone and kept the laughter going.  It was a great way to celebrate!

I made HWNSNBP slow down when we got to the corner of the street where the restaurant was so I could take a picture of ......

these mannequins that were all dressed up and staged all around the property of this house.  Kind of creepy for March.  At first, we passed them on the way in I thought there was some kind of event going on until I realized that they weren't moving and they were most definitely there on the way out. Here's a little news blurb about them.
