My Mom's 85th Birthday Lunch

 How can you bless a Mother who at 85 still is
delighted to see you, loves each of her 8 children with
a passion, and is just as excited over grand baby #66
as over the first one?
You really can't..but a few of her extended
family got together for lunch today 
and by being with her tried to show our love.
 I was inspired by the fabric in the pic above for the 
colors and decor for the lunch. I wanted to bless
each of the ladies in my family too so I made
pancake mix "in a jar" and homemade syrup
for each to take home.
It's been 37 years (I believe) since all of my 7 sisters
were together! But at least those of us 
who live near by did today and even tho
we tired my Mom out:) I hope she enjoyed it!
