Need I say more; I am now officially the wrinkley age........
When Sherry picked me up I had NO idea where we were going , told to pack an overnight bag.....
First stop New Dundee Tea Room and Emporium built in 1887
where Rosanne was waiting..
We enjoyed High Tea...
.... scones and jam and clotted cream , dainty sandwiches , teas and sweet treats...So good, we could not eat all the 3 tier of goodies.........
Doggy box of treats
Sherry found a few things!
Next stop Meadow Acres Garden Center In St. Petersburg On. which is decorated for Halloween and also Christmas has arrived there. So many unique ideas for Xmas decor, a couple you may see on this blog later in Nov....
Off we drove to Stratford where we strolled the main street visiting many cute shops there, Bradshaws Kitchen store, Rhea Thompson chocolate shop....
Back into the vehicles and a short drive later to, as it is called Stone Town, St. Marys. and the Westover Inn..........St Marys is called stone town because many of the churches and buildings are built with limestone which was quarried there......so picturesque.
The Westover Inn a lovely 1867 Victorian home located on 19 landscaped acres, well known for their award winning cuisine........
My cosy room was decorated with Birthday touches from banners , birthday balloons and buttons
to a floral arrangement from the grandchildren, Thanks so much to Brianne Brock Brittany and Brayden!
to wine and appetizers........
We sipped wine and ate our nibbles......
being shown the lovely charms and told the meaning. |
Girls made me put on all the 65 touches,
they were certainly chuckling!
Dressed for the 7 PM dinner ,
it is a lovely dining room, we had the table in the bay window!
dinner was delicious as was the wine...... Westover certainly can boast about their award winning cuisine...
and yes they even acknowledged my birthday......... candles all aglow on ginger cake with pumpkin ice cream........
After our late dinner back in the room where we changed again..... into jamas...
and a rather scary cape!
Witch Rosanne |
Crowding on the bed
having many laughs............Next day after a most filling breakfast we were off to the spa.....
Pedicures, manicures, brow waxing........ fun time!
Explored the main street of St Marys visiting McPherson's Craft store, Castle Garden store and even another chocolate shop.....
Late afternoon lunch and then home............ What a way to celebrate a birthday!
Thanks to my most amazing daughters for the fabulous surprise... thanks for all the considerate planning and all the fun and laughs we had....
You are both terrific women!
Thanks for the wonderful memories of this birthday .. making me feel special and well loved..........
Thanks so very much ! Kisses and Hugs to both of you!

Good evening dear Rosemary, and Happy Belated Birthday wishes. I am so sorry I missed your birthday, especially as it was a special one. It looks like your daughters totally spoilt you, and you so deserved it. Hope all is well your end, I have been absent from blogging for a while, but am trying to get back into it.
