Westi is a quarter of a century old … as old as I was when she came to live with me! Time surely does march on. Make the most of it, Westianne! (I know you will!)

ps. This picture is from a few Christmas’ ago. Still captures the essence of Westi, don’t you think?

How can it be? If YOU are 25… how old am I? No, no that just isn’t possible!
Congratulations on this and your big news about the house, too!
Make the most of every day and remember your advice to me! Balance.
Have a great weekend.
Happy Birthday to Woo,
Happy Birthday to Woo,
Happy Birthday Dear Westi,
Happy Birthday to Woo.
Your card will probably come today or tomorrow
after you are gone. Loren’s is still laying here
so he will send today he says. You know we thought of you on your birthday! Love the photo!
Your dad says that is way he sings best! Loren is
off to get news from doctor right now. Hey, Steve, you don’t have to feel old. My mom said
she didn’t feel old until I turned 50! It is hard
to believe you are 25 and we have never spent your
birthday with you. I hope one of these days we
can! We have spent lots of other special occasions with you so I can’t complain really.
Hope you are having great weekend. love you lots and wish I was there!
Okay, where did that hat come from, and where did it go? I’ll see if I can replicate that silly picture over the weekend protecting myself from the rain in Portland. Thanks for the b-day wishes! I’m trying to find out what time Bunny’s Shoes opens so I can go spend my certificate. =) Thanks! PS–I win, it DOES always rain on my birthday.
Happy belated Birthday posting Westi. I did call you and leave a message yesterday but it was early in the afternoon for you. I learned you are not home so I didn’t bother to call last night.
25 was my favorate age so have a blast with it. I wasn’t married, working or buying a house so it may bring very different things for you but I loved being 25.
Congrats on the new house and selling the current house!!!!! To Michael too! Hey, did Laura give Michael his gift?
