the weekend was one of magical experiences; filled with family, friends, fun. a baby shower for first time parents; my nephew and his wife. a neat gift request was for everyone to bring a book for the little one's library. each book was inscribed by the giver. mom and dad glowed as they opened the gifts. the food was tasty fine. there was much talking and laughter. as if that wasn't enough excitement, the next day we had a surprise dinner to celebrate my sister's 60th birthday and her and her husband's 40th wedding anniversary. hubby was not surprised as he had a clue but sister was definitely surprised! two of their three children attended as did their closest friends. there was much talking and laughter. a magical weekend! one that leaves a glow that lingers.

I'm still glowing and in awe you all kept it quite. Looking back, a few attendees almost spilled the beans. One kept saying they would see me on Sunday, when the shower was on Saturday! ha
