My sister, Dawn, just celebrated her 33rd birthday on the 20th. Unfortunately, she’s in Chicago and I’m in Nashville, so I didn’t get to spend it with her. So if you’re expecting birthday pictures, sorry, I have none to share … from this year 😉 .
Let me set the scene: the year – roughly 1980; the location – a small log building on the front lawn of the local McDonalds (Ronald McDonald Party House – do they even have these anymore?); the atmosphere – 10-15 very quiet and well-mannered kids (that’s what I remember anyway, I guess my mom could tell a different story – but this isn’t her story) having the time of their lives at a McDonald’s Birthday Party (this was big time – seriously) hoping to catch a glimpse of Ronald McDonald himself; the birthday girl – kinda prissy with her new birthday lip gloss, but oh so cute.
Yeah, that’s me, the cooler big sister (on the right) 😉
