Celebrating Birthdays

This is our little birthday group celebrating our Friend Kaye's 80th birthday at our friend Marie & Deidra's place.
As we age we find that celebrating every day is important - as well as celebrating achieving each birthday is important.

From the backyard patio we watch the sunset over the desert.
Kaye - our guest of honor -  was completely surprised  to find us all hiding in the kitchen.
A great carrot cake awaited Kaye when she arrived.

80 candles would have burnt down the house so we opted for the numbers.
And only 2 candles were easier to blow out for Kaye.
The traveling Birthday Hat was worn by our birthday girl all evening  This is Bobbie & Kathy.
Here Kaye stands with Brenda, Pat & Jane.

Cheryl, Flo & I gave Kaye & Pat a big birthday hug.

Kaye is from Canada and so were many of the guests - as were Donna & Lyn.
Dorian & Kim also from Canada dropped in on their way to Palm Springs for the winter.

Our hostesses - Marie & Deidra with Kaye & Pat.

Just because your 80 doesn't mean you stop having fun Kaye says. Till the next birthday celebration we say goodbye.
