Sandy

Today is Donna’s sister Sandy’s birthday. Sandy’s husband Paul and his mom planned on going out to eat at an Italian restaurant in her honor, sort of like the three of them used to do for Paul’s father by going to a Mexican restaurant.

Donna wanted to do a little something different in her honor, so this afternoon we went to Kroger and bought one of those Happy Birthday balloons filled with helium and stuffed it in the trunk of the Emperor. Later in the evening we drove the 40 miles up to Clarks Hill Lake and set it lose from a boat ramp at sunset.
