Grandma Susan's Big 60th Birthday Bash

On September 26, 2008 we hosted Jeremy's mom's (Susan's) 60th birthday party. Susan's sisters Andrea and Jeannie, flew in from Arizona for the weekend. (We were sorry that Great Grandma and Grandpa Sorensen and Uncle Doug had to stay behind at the last minute, but we're glad to hear Grandpa is feeling better.)

Here is slideshow of the Birthday Queen getting the royal treatment from her family and friends. http://picasaweb.google.com/kellbryson/SusanS60thBday#5254242547953052466

Paul and Amy Burt attended, along with appearances from ALL of Susan's kids and granddaughters. Speaking of grandkids, Lane and LaDonna gave a great birthday surprise - LaDonna is expecting!! She's due in April and we're all wondering if this baby will be the long-awaited grandson!

The evening was perfect for eating and relaxing in our backyard. We enjoyed a delicious dinner of brisket, sausage, salad, potatoes, dips, and a yummy bouquet of chocolate covered strawberries. The chocolate cake was huge and mmm, mmm, DELICIOUS!!!

Susan birthday haul included her new diamond ring (nicknamed "My Precious"), pottery from Honduras via Becky, a blanket from Great Grandma & Grandpa, an um, interesting garden statue from the Aunts, flowers, jewelry and a family photo album.

We enjoyed hosting the party in our home and visiting with family and friends. We hope Susan especially enjoyed the party and the weekend with her sisters. Happy 60th Grandma - hope the year is full of happiness!!!
