My cousin, Barbie, leaves tomorrow morning and I'm so sad that she has to go. We've had such fun together! In 2 weeks she turns 50, and 5 months to the day later I'll do the same. To celebrate, Mom & Dad took us to lunch at The Broadmoor. Barbie had never been there and it was fun to see it thru her eyes. It really is spectacular. Mom told us to not look at the prices but to order anything we wanted, so we did. We ended up being "cheap dates" (relatively speaking) since we both had soup and salad. For dessert the Seniors shared creme brulee, Barbie had a berries & cream concoction, and I had vanilla ice cream. (Don't laugh...I love vanilla ice cream!) The creme brulee ended up becoming a 4-way dessert since it was so large, and Barbie's eyes glazed over as she commented that it tasted like Heaven! What fun! Afterward we walked around and enjoyed feeling like royalty for a little while. Thanks, Mom & Dad, for such a treat. How about we do it again when I REALLY turn 50?!!

It was really our pleasure to share time with you two and see you enjoying time together - it doesn't happen often enough. So glad that you enjoyed the day and we will do it again when you really reach 50 in Sept. LY
