July 21, 2011

7/19/11

Our friend Connie celebrated her 50th Birthday today.
She couldn’t make the party.
My friends Mary, Marguerite & I celebrated her birthday with her in spirit.
We ALL turn 50 this year – Connie is first in line!

We have know each other since first grade at
Resurrection of Our Lord — we were 5yrs old.

How many friends have you had for 45 years?

famous rib dish — which i was rightly advised to order.

When I can’t decide what to order I text my friend Jesse &
let him decide for me!!!  It works like a charm.
SO – Jesse is not only my FINANCIAL ADVISOR
but my dinner advisor as well — thank you Jesse –
GREAT CHOICE!

So you’re 50!
Congratulations on reaching the half century mark.
It’s amazing how many changes have happened just in your life span.
Look forward to even more amazing changes over the next 50 birthdays!

Forty is the old age of youth; fifty is the youth of old age.

always positive,

Helcha 🙂
