It's a celebration of Life

Happy Birthday Dad!


I love Karoke, and my karoke machine was a big part of the party! We song the song Celebration by Kool & the gang.
We went around the room asking everyone, "how do you know this couple"
The best part of it all was my money tree theme, this idea I came up with (being the practical) person I am, I wanted to do a pressure free party, no one obligated to do anything but come out and have a good time.
(any money given by guest were placed in a small custom made envelopes and cliped on the tree,only visible money were these custom US dollars that I made for the celebration)
Folks , Food & Mingling! Thats what I wanted. Thanks for your Presence!
Happy Birthday Dad!

A time of reflection of time of rememberance
It's hard to believe its been 2 years since I hosted my celebration of Life. It was a celebration of my new life that was on its way December 2007. I summons all my friends and family to my celebration. I didn't want a "babyshower" type of thing, but a celebration to bring my family & friends together for a good time.
Months before time, I put out a save the date cards

A couple weeks before the celebration I sent out the custom made invitations


and we read our custom advise card out loud


**All the while my dad spirit was with me and my family on that day. It was his birthday, Now that was a celebration & my new addition was and is an extention of his life.

Oh girl you making me tear up!
