Celebrate a Rich Gift




who do we celebrate today?








"Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart,
and the pleasantness of one's friend springs from his earnest counsel."

Proverbs 27:9


Yeah, Edie!! Happy Birthday!!

Thank you for your earnest counsel, friend! Enjoy your special day!

Edie requested a slice. Hope it was as yummy as it looks. Anyone else?

Sharon, enjoy! CK, I gave you a piece, too, so you need to come back for your plate!


Coffee with yummies!!!!

OK....LIMBO TIME!

OK....new game!! We can ALL play this one—

I knew that would pull ADHDMe out of hiding!


I took my piece. I'll be nice and share it with CJ tomorrow.

ADHDMe left you a piece with some of the icing missing.

Time to wrap up the rest! Feel free to put that in your freezer until next year.

(Oh wait...that's not for birthdays. But...why not? Although, there is that missing icing....)

It was such fun. Hope you enjoyed it!



So let's dance, this last dance, to-niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. YEAH!




Thanks again for taking care of the clean up!

Trash does get picked up tomorrow.....

Talk about not wanting a party to end :-)



Awww....something for the kids! Thanks, ADHDMe. (The P Baby gets the baby pink!)

Sue J. said…
Big picture and little details....it's just the stuff in the middle that I can's seem to get my head around--LOL!

I'll work on the cake-cutting thing....
Edie said…
WAHAHAHAHA!!
It was very yummy!!
Edie said…
Just look at all the comments you're getting... most of them from me but hey....

I just came back because I realized that my first comment may have sounded snarky. NOT INTENTIONAL!!! Geeze I really have to watch my writing.
Sharon Sloan said…
That is so sweet of you! (pun intended!)

But seriously...very sweet.
Kelly said…
Yummy - and it's chocolate my favorite. Hey - this is turning into a chat room like ADHD's place.

How nice we can all get together and celebrate a GREAT bloggy friend like Edie. And of course, thoughtful Sue is hostessing as usual. She is the best too.
Sue J. said…
Well, you know, since ADHDMe is having computer/cable issues, she may miss out on the cake! Good thing your birthday lasts until midnight, Edie!

But, I may have to pass out the coffee soon. Too much cake.....
Edie said…
Wow that cake is going fast. Coffee? Did I hear someone say coffee? :D
Kelly said…
Mmmm - you know coffee is my passion. MMmmmmm. Thanks.
Kelly said…
Whooops - I sure hope that was decaf, or I'll be up all night. *wink*
Kelly said…
Limbo? I'm glad I had the coffee! whew. You guys party hard! ;)
Sue J. said…
Excuse me, CK, shouldn't you be sleeping??? I love that you stayed to party but....

With the guest of honor in a different time zone, this party is really going to go on for awhile. Time for a new game!
My ADHD Me said…
Sorry I'm late but it looks like this is going to be an all nighter! Thank goodnes there is cake left. Actually, I'll just run my finger around the side to eat some of the icing. That will drive CK CRAZY!
I brought some balloons. I'll tie them to the banister while we play some games.

Happy Birthday Edie!
My ADHD Me said…
Edie---SNARK!! There isn't a snark bone in your body. Hopefully no SHARK bones either!
My ADHD Me said…
SnarkY. I meant SnarkY.
Not snark.

I wouldn't have caught that but I came back to join in on the "last dance...last dance....."

You may want to even out the icing on Edie's last piece. Looks like someone ran their finger through it. HOW RUDE!! Delicious!! but rude!
Edie said…
WaaHoo! This was just the best party ever! The cake was delicious! The coffee was ... well coffee is ALWAYS good! The company was delightful! Sue J really know how to throw a party!

Speaking of throw, I almost threw my back out trying to limbo. I'm not as limbo as I used to be. LOL!

ADHD-Jo, I'm so glad you made it!

CK, ...CK? Are you still awake? zzzzzzzzz

Ah well, it was a lot of fun. I guess I'll just take this piece of cake that Sue J wrapped up so nicely home for tomorrow... or maybe a midnight snack. Oh look, it's almost midnight now. :D

Thank you God, for giving me these wonderful bloggy friends. Amen.
Kelly said…
Sorry guys - I missed the end of the party. A girls got to sleep. But I'm back to help Sue J clean up. Am I am good friend or what?

Thanks for the party Sue J! We had a blast.
Edie said…
That IS a good friend! I'll help too. I'll clear the table, you load the dishwasher. Sound good?

Sue J you just relax, we got this covered. :)
Sue J. said…
I am laughing SO HARD right now...Oh my, you guys....Thanks! The Jet Dry is under the sink, Edie. CK, extra trash bags in the pantry....

RJ2 loves the party photos! So that must mean you had a good birthday!
Edie said…
Whew! Not only can Sue throw a GREAT party but we sure know how to make a mess! I didn't think it was all going to fit!

WAHAHAHAHA!

Thanks Ginny! You had good reason to be late. Just wish you would've brought that baby by so we could hold her. She is so precious!

I do mean it when I say that God used you all in a big way. I really felt like I celebrated all day. Thanks!

Please make sure CJ, RJ2, CK's girls, and the P kids all get a ballon. I know ADHD-Jo brought plenty. :)
My ADHD Me said…
er...what's going on?...I slept through the clean-up. Sorry...the party lasted so late I could have slept all day.
Well, since the house is clean, I guess I'll go home now.
Thanks for a great time!
Sue J. said…
"I could have slept all day.
I could have slept all day.
And never begged for more....

But,

Could I have a napkin, PLEEZ!"

Golly, I need another post idea, quick! (LOL!!)

But on the up side, you a have record breaking number of comments! That is always fun. And it isn't even YOUR birthday.
Edie said…

On this Merry Christmas Night....

Merry Christmas, blog friends! I know you're wondering, "Did she finish painting her family room (finally....)??" (Nope!) * * * D oesn't this look like how our days are sometimes? Myriad things scattered about, unfinished. Trying to take a cozy, restful seat by the fire, but still that seat stays empty. We try to make things brighter, but the light strings don't quite have the power to make things clear for us. And we wonder how many coats it will take to cover up what had been there before, without splotches and unevenness. (Three may just be right--sigh....!) * * * We may have things unfinished. We may have "miscalculated" the use of our time. Or perhaps we were called away to other things for which we were needed, even if they weren't part of our plans. Even in our peaceful approach to Christmas, that seat of rest may be vacant. But the opportunity to "Be still...." doesn't always lie in a cozy sea

When I was 45....

I t was a very good year! (Yep, celebrating again! I hijacked my own blog--LOL!) The glass is half full, and things have never looked more browniful! Awesome day on tap.... sunshine, take-out barbecue for dinner, cake.... Thanks for celebrating with me! Enjoy.... ( Let it rise....One of my all-time favorite praise songs! )

Post #100

L ong before we bloggers celebrated our first 100 posts, the psalmists provided us with theirs. In recognition of my 100th, let's celebrate by looking at the Bible's "Post #100" (a.k.a., Psalm 100, A Psalm for Thanksgiving or Thank Offering): Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. Surprisingly, there is no direct Hebrew translation for the English word 'joyful' as used in this verse in the King James Version. That leaves things a bit open to interpretation. My study Bible (NASB) says 'joyful' is "a shout of loyalty and homage." The dictionary defines 'joy' with the word rejoicing, meaning "to be made glad again." 'Noise,' however, does come with a Hebrew equivalent, meaning "to split the ears with sound," as in to shout, shout for joy. Lands implies all the earth, the nations, the world. We, those of all nations, are to present to the Lord, out of our loyalty and homage to Him, joyful shouts that
