We had a fun birthday party. Ate too many tacos and had a great birthday cake. I used Bristols ballerina cake topper she sent me from her new store (check it out, too cute)
As some or most of you might know, my parents (mom) own a huge fabulous interiors store downtown, in a historic Masonic Temple buildingthey purchased almost 15 years ago called Grand Heron, WE all suffered horrible when the storm of December 2007 hit here in Washington State, but none more tragically than the shop. This place is her life..Anyway, finally, after more than 4 months of dis-service and piss poor customer service, and alot- and I mean ALOT of just plain NO service, my mom got a check, the first of a few, from her insurance company for her beloved Grand Heron building.
Here she is with it. We joked and had alot of fun with this, my dad even wrapped it up in a birthday present for her, and brought over champagne to swig and toast..Finally, finally, FINALLY we are getting somewhere! New building, new GRand Heron-- here we come... She deserves it. Im so happy that the stress is starting to come off of her. (and dad) its been horrible. She dosent handle it well. BUT NOT YESTERDAY!!!
Yay!! Happy Birthday Mom, Im happy, extatic and overwhelmed for you.. FINALLY.
What a great Birthday day. I love ya!
Tomorrow..100 blog giveaway..check me out.
