On March 23, 2013, Mike, Jeff, Tom and I with our families had a birthday party to celebrate Mom's 80th Birthday. We had a great lunch at a new italian place nearby their home, came back took some pictures outside of the family, went inside and watched a slideshow of Spendley pictures focused on Mom and her family.
All five boys gave Mom a gift that she has truly cherished - a mini IPAD. On that day, she was truly surprised at the gift and obviously elated. All of her boys were thrilled that we could give a gift to make her happy, the last year has been a struggle for my parents. Last year at this time, Mom was in the hospital still fighting to recover from her fall at the end of February. We were all thankful that on this day that we created a special memory for our mom.
Mom still talks about how much she loves her IPAD - she face times with Jessie, she writes emails and an occasional text message. She has turned into quite the GEEK. It is now obvious to me where I got my GEEKNESS from!!!!
