90th Birthday

Grandma Peters' birthday is February 7th. She turns 90 years old. She would absolutely love it if each of you sent her a birthday card with a note in it. She keeps the cards up for several days or weeks after the particular holiday. Considering this is an extra special birthday I thinks she would really appreciate it. I would send them so they arrive before the 7th.
Her address:
Dorothy Peters
31D Calle Aragon
Laguna Woods, CA 92637

I was going to make her a quilt, then decided against it because she probably can't carry it from one place to another. Then I decided it was more important for me to do something special for her and let the consequences follow. Sooooooooo, I am busy quilting her a quilt, which has given me much reflection time about her and the special person she is.

I will be going over there on the 3rd and staying though Saturday. I am not sure what we will do to celebrate as she hasn't gone out to eat in a couple of months or more. My brothers usually bring her a turkey sandwich occasionally.

The bishop offically has our paperwork for our mission and we still need an interview with him. We have a temple recommend interview on the 30th with a member of the stake presidency. We aren't sure how soon we will meet with the stake president, so it could be awhile before we get our call, which likely will come while we are in Virginia! We are looking at a possible April 1st departure instead of March 1. The biggest hurdle will be the plane ticket, trying to get it a fews weeks out so that it won't be an insurmountable amount of money. It will all fall together eventually!
Love,
Mom
