| My mom turned 90 years old on Sunday, December 1, 2013. She was born on that date in 1923. She owes her longevity to her daily glass of wine!!! |
 |
| Just a bit surprised when she discovers who traveled a long way to attend her party!!! My husband and I flew up from Florida to Massachusetts to enjoy this great event! She did not know we would be there! |
 |
| Ninety is looking pretty darn good! She is still so beautiful inside and out!!! She still cooks up a storm!!! |
 |
| Mom arrived in this beautiful car along with her sisters! |
 |
| Cell phone anyone!!! Queen for a Day, was photographed many times over during the evening!!! I just love this photo! |
 |
| Mom clowning around with her three younger sisters. She has been telling me for several months now that she was turning 90. She has lived the longest out of all of her family! She is sibling number 11, coming from of a family of 14. You go Mama! |
 |
| Mom pictured with all of her grand-daughters and great-grand-daughters! Do you think she likes being the center of attention??? |
 |
| Testing the cake with great-grand-daughter Charlotte. Charlotte's mom Kristen made the beautiful cake! |
 |
| She danced the night away! |
 |
| Grand-daughter Kristen and her daughter Charlotte. Kristen planned the event with her mom Terry. Together they created an incredible event! The decorations were outstanding! Fond memories for many years to come! |
 |
| Three of mom's best friends, Sophie, Helen (my mother-in-law) and Dottie. Dottie lower right is 94! WOW!!! Also pictured is Aunty Edna in the far background, also 94. |

| My two beautiful grand-daughters, Sophia and Hannah, dressed for the occasion! The theme for the party, "The Roaring Twenties". |
 |
| Cousin Ricky dressed for the event. Looks like he could be the mayor of New Bedford!!! |
 |
| Cousin Patty also dressed for the event! So beautiful!!! Our beautiful Mom turned 90 last Sunday! It was a surprise event and over the top beautiful. Mom arrived in style, chauffeur and all. She was overwhelmed with emotion when she saw how many guests had attended in her honor. After the meal guests were asked to tell a funny story about mom! There were many! She is a character and says whatever is on her mind! For the most part she gets away with it! She was also presented with the book that I wrote, The Promise of a Better Life. The story of her family and the legacy that they have left behind. She danced the night away! Crying, laughing and screaming that she was, Queen for a Day! My beautiful mom! We are so blessed to have her! She has taught us the true meaning of love and family. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM! LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!!!!!!!!! |
