Hurricanes and Birthdays

Hello, Dear Friends!

It's been ages since I sent you a Postcard -- Summer has been busy/fun! -- but now it's time to resume chronicling our travels.

As of this very moment, we are housebound due to Hurricane Irene, who is bearing down upon us as we speak. The rains just began about 30 minutes ago, and high winds are expected throughout tomorrow.  We have prepared our home as best we can for her threats, and we are hopeful that she will be less than the "Weather Professionals" on our local TV channel have hyped.

The REAL reason I'm writing today... jd's 60th Birthday was on August 25th, and we celebrated, "Martineau style".

Which means, of course, that it was as silly as possible.

jd...doesn't he look thrilled???


The fare included a "Cupcake Cake"...


Lollipops, Bubblegum, Sugar Babies, Fruit Roll-ups, Chips Ahoy and Oreo's, among other delectable pastry goodies.

There were Glow Sticks, Balloons, and naturally, the lovely Party Hats seen here:

Dad
Mom

Donna

Tom

Joe, John and Steve

Jessica

David

Kevin

And Party Games!



There is never a dull moment at a Dunn/Martineau gathering!

Wish you were here!
xoxoxo, clare
