I don't know how this tradition got started but it did and I love it. Every Friday is lunch with my mom and my sister Diane and my other sister Marilyn when she can join us from Idaho. Somehow they pulled off a surprise lunch for my birthday when they did not even know that I could go to lunch because I had Meg and Ben's kids while Meg was in the hospital with Hailey. They took me to Maddox and had balloons and a cake. Jay was able to join us. I have to say that I don't feel like 50. I love the black flowers in this cake, it really was a beautiful cake.
