we supped at mel's (feasted, really) and then presented momma. with her presents. darin and i gave her a guitar and she is going to be a folk singer princess once again like days of yore! doesn't she look great with it?!
happy to be with a fellow musician:
then reconnoitered later at powells for karaoke night! momma wowed the crowd. no one could believe she was any older than 40 and beleaguered her with compliments. (poor thing)

(poor thing) now her singing just didn't live up. she couldn't hang with the performance side of karaoke! can you believe it? first she forced mikie to sing this song with her:
"islands in a stream"and then she refused to sing! he had to take over, making up his own melody since he doesn't really know the song (and doing a damn fine job i might add) and then mom got some back-up:
luckily the crowd was forgiving and mom decided she's more of an "audience" gal.

SWEET MAMA SUE
WE LOOVVEE YOU!
We were so glad to have you at our beloved karaoke! Too bad there are no pictures of Heather, me, and you singing CATCH THE WIND! Because you actually sang the whole time, Im pretty sure! That was a lovely trio! :) I cant wait for many more rendezvous such as this one! 58 years on earth have shaped you into a beautiful and strong woman that we all couldnt live without!
And i hate that last picture heather...cant decide if I was posing like a mamed dork, or if I just AM one and it was candid. yuck!
awesome post Heather. Mama happy 30th birthday! Glad you're finally enjoying some gypsyatory celebration!!
Emily, I think that's your natural face. Which makes it even better.
Nana!!! You look soooooo beautiful. You should have never put that guitar down. Wish I could been with you on your day. It all looked so fun and fancy free! Love you Nana!! xoxo
sue, happy birthday. the guitar suits you. you look so beautiful, lively, and strong.
love dolly.
birthday festivities united. looks like it was a great big bundle of fun. Mom, happy birthday! you're beautiful. Wish we could've been there. I'm so glad you've got your hands a nice guitar now (Heather and Darin--sweet and brilliant idea!). We need a big family performance/singalong soon. Also glad your itunes is up and running again!
I like the picture of Mikie and Susan singing "islands in a stream" the most; and the one following it. They are natural
Thank you all for a wonderful birthday!! It was so fun to get a guitar again and I'm practicing like crazy! It's great to be 58!! I know I'm terrible at karaoke! Never again... Love you all
