It was a BIG one so we wanted to celebrate her in a BIG way :) We had a few "extra" people as a surprise to her and tried to have a theme making it catered JUST for her...
Sisters much? :) I think maybe my fav. pic of the two of them EVER! SO stinkin' cute!

We ordered Pizza Hut (her favorite :) and I asked everyone to bring a dessert that was either lemon and/or raspberry... there was lemon pound cake, raspberry roll, a lemon/raspberry triffle, raspberry pie, raspberry bismarks and turnovers, lemon/raspberry custard deliciousness, chocolate raspberry cupcakes, lemon and raspberry tarts and straight up RASPBERIES :) yum yum YUM!
We each went around and answered questions that we drew out of a bucket...
How did you meet Janet/Mama/Mimi J
What is your favorite thing she has made, mended or helped you with?
What is one thing you admire most about her?
Do you have a silly/funny story/memory about her?
What do you think is the most important thing to her?
What is the most caring thing she had done for you?
Have you learned any lessons from her?
How has she influenced your life?
What makes her laugh?
If you wrote a book about her what would you call it?
Everyone participated and it was WONDERFUL to hear the answers :) 
My behind the scenes partner in crime... I just can't do anything without him...LOVE him!
