Retirement

Hayden is so lucky to have both his Nanny and Nana so close by and now both of them are retired!  Mom retired from teaching in 2004 and Jeff’s mom, Corene, will be officially retired after 24 years at the USPS the end of the month. 

On Sunday, we had a retirement party for her at our church.

Yolanda, my sister in law, found this cake online and we thought it was perfect!  So, I had Cynthia, the girl who made Hayden’s birthday cakes, make it for us.  It was cookies and cream and so yummy!  DSC_0804 One of Corene’s friends provided the fruit for us and another friend provided the punch.  They were both fabulous!DSC_0803

It was a great party and we had a great turn out!  I know Corene is looking forward to retirement and we are looking forward to spending more time with her!
