Gifts

Our family got together the last weekend of January. We stayed at my sister's house (they are vacationing in a warmer climate.) *Some of the activities* We took turns making meals, played games, took walks using snow shoes, went ice fishing, talked and laughed and cried and prayed together. 

One evening my family piled gifts on the coffee table, sang Happy Birthday to me and served a Dairy Queen birthday cake. When I saw the gifts I asked, "What in the world is going on?!"

 They answered with a question.  "How old will you be on your next birthday?"  

60 is the answer to that. 

They got their heads together, all unbeknownst to me, and decided to give me 60 gifts. I was surprised to say the least! 

Here is a list in alphabetical order.  

I will never be bored again .... not that I've ever had a problem with that.
