50th BDay Surprise !

Saturday was my brother, Eddie's, 50th birthday. His wife Trudi orchestrated a great surprise party for him at the Purple Sage in downtown Hendersonville.




We were all to appear at 7pm sharp with a "memory to share". Hey, he's FIFTY, not dead!!!

Tom at the Purple Sage did a wonderful job in the "wine cellar" - yummy food, great company and (of course) great wine!

We all took turns with funny stories from Eddie's first 50 years.




Mom told about the "burning the lawnmower, almost burning the house down" incident from circa 1965....


Truly a memorable birthday for Eddie!


Watch out Keith - you'll be there before you know it!!


Pretty snow view from Mom's house....our snow is mostly gone now, thank goodness!!


Quick trip - the view driving down Old Fort mountain was spectacular!!!

Oh Such FUN! I really wish we could have been there - Rafe said he knew some stories but he couldn't tell them in public - hehehe...

Love,
