The bouquet you sent is so beautiful!

Thank you so much for my wonderful flowers. The flower shop did a great job. Picture 12 "sterling" violet roses amidst many different greens and wild "baby breath-type stuff." They are not only beautiful but scented the entire house. I was so surprised and it really made my day. It arrived shortly after I stopped working and from that point on, my birthday began. I cooked a blue-plate special with meatloaf, baked potato, and asparagus (Is this more than you wanted to know)? (I admit I kind of went overboard and handed out bananas and grapes to all the barnyard animals in an effort to extend our celebration). In the end, our festivities were topped off with a bowl of strawberry jello and whipped cream, and I was in bed by 8 p.m. Had a wonderful birthday call from Bill en route to NY, as well as Emily (who is recovering from bacterial pneumonia). She has lost 13 pounds and has an appointment with pulmonologist and transplant team in mid-August. She is spending her time packing in Charleston until then. Will keep you updated.

Again, thank you Bill, Debbie, Leah, Trisha, Tom, Sarah, and Andy. P.S. I hear you all in Easton have a new hot tub? So happy for you. Love, Judie
