That's What Friends Are For

This past Monday my former co-workers honored me with a retirement celebration. It was so great seeing everyone again! They had 2 collages on display that showed memorable pictures of me & people from my years of teaching. In addition, my family & I were treated to a delicious meal. A beautiful cake was the dessert we all enjoyed. I was presented with a potted plant & a generous gift certificate to one of my favorite places to shop, Old Time Pottery.

Today I met another former co-worker for brunch at Mimi's Cafe. She is also retired from teaching. We had a relaxing visit while we enjoyed our yummy food. She presented me with an adorable picture frame for my new grandbaby who will be arriving in March.

Thanks friends & family for helping me celebrate! You mean the world to me!

Until next time, take care!

    I will add you to my list.
