A Happy Birthday It Was..!

Today we celebrated my Son's 24th Birthday along with our Loved Aunt Margie's...

Aunt Marge watched my son when I returned to work Part Time when he was only 4 months old,

she has always been more than an "Aunt" to Jere and her birthday was actually my 

due date when I was pregnant,

Jere was born Four days after her birthday and as long as I can remember, we have always 

celebrated a dinner in honor of them both...!

Aunt Marge was diagnosed with Cancer  just before Christmas,

She had surgery with some complications but has rebound remarkably.

Her Chemotherapy treatments are going very well with her blood work 

all within normal levels.  The past couple of months had been very hard on 

Jere knowing and seeing "his" Aunt Margie going through so much and feeling so ill.

But with many Prayers and Faith, 

Aunt Margie is feeling better than she has in a very long time...

I was prepared to make a Chiffon Cake with Fresh Strawberries and Cream

for the birthday couple...

 But Aunt Margie's Best Friend had dropped off this Beautiful Huge Cake on her Birthday to 

which she wanted to share with Jere at their annual Birthday Dinner.

Thinking we would just add "Jere's" name to the cake knowing
he would not mind the Yellow and Pink Roses.
But Jere being Jere wouldn't hear of it.
When he realized what was going to be done when the tube of Writing Icing was brought out,

he said to keep the Cake just the way it was and to not add his name. 

We had a wonderful day celebrating with much laughter and good food....!!

And the Cake....Heavenly!

The Chiffon Cake will be made in the very near future,

and I promised Jere I would bake him cupcakes to treat at his work tomorrow.

So the alarm is set for 6am...Yikes!

 Have a Fantastic Week and thanks for stopping by..!
