March was a month of many friends and family birthdays
and what a great place to celebrate--
Forever Weekend Farm
I decided since it was Joe's 60th-a special birthday,
we would not tell him of any plans and make it a surprise.
And it just happens that the very special little man in my life was going to turn 2 on the 15th,
so Elwood and Joe were going to be surprised together!
A special Thank You to my good friends Sandi and Cindy who took hundreds of candid pictures throughout the afternoon on March 8th. They captured the love, the laughter, the funny friends and sisters who loved singing with the band, the great friends and family who traveled near and far, the beautiful young ones who are so special to us, the loyal dogs in our lives, the smoked pig who gave his life to feed so many, the colorful peaceful areas of the farm, the corn hole and bocci ball tournaments, the delicious appetizers and desserts, and the wonderful 12 A Band!
Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate and made this such a fun occasion-we have some wonderful memories and pictures to tell the story forever!
