Shelly's "other" birthday party.

Shelly turned 50 on Wednesday.

We were going to have a suprise bbq for her on Saturday, but they had baseball (late notice from her husband), so we had a small dinner on  Wed for her. 

but Mitzi had a few of us over on Sat. anyway, and guess who got back from Baseball early?

Shelly!

(she just wanted all the partying she could get!)

I love Mitzi  (in above picture she is the one on the left.  I love April too.... lol, she is on the right)

But Mitzi....still hangs out wash.

Lord Love a Duck!

I LOVE to see clothes on a line.

The women....all tired from all the hard work of making dinner!

The men.....all relaxing after dinner with their cigars and brandy.

(okay...beer. and no one smokes, but why are we seperated?  women in one room,  men in another?)
