Maggie May's Birthday Album



For weeks there have been whispers and emails going back and forward about Maggie May's (Mary's) special birthday - we called it operation MAGPIE. It was Carrie's lovely idea to arrange a special gift for this special lady. Lots of the girls created an entry or card for Mary's birthday album and Carrie put it all together last Saturday and we presented it to her along with a beautiful hand made cake by the talented Liz/Littlebit. Mary's face was priceless - she had absolutely no idea we were going to surprise her. The album is a testament to how much we all love and respect her artistic talents - she's one in a million. Happy Birthday Mary!
