Today I am 54! I’ve never been one of those women who refuses to tell her age. It is, what it is. Actually, considering the rather strange life I have led, the fact that I still roam the earth is a miracle in itself!
This past year I welcomed my first granddaughter! Sweet Savannah Rose! A little Angel!
Despite the bad weather, we did have a crop of peaches, and I made some peach jam. I also made grape jelly, and my first batch ever of Dill Pickles!
Hubby and I are both in fairly good health and enjoying our home and our pets. All four dogs, Fritz, Greta, Arnie and Anneliese continue to give us far more love and comfort, then we could ever give to them!
Yes, turning 54 is not such a bad thing! Now please, sit back and enjoy this short montage of me and my loved ones from birth until now!
Happy Birthday, Maribeth!! What a wonderful slide-show of your life events … I saw some pics of Germany (and German EIS!!!). 🙂
I love how you have embraced life and sad things have made you better, not bitter. Your joy in living and in the every day shines through your blog and in your sweet comments you leave for me!
GOD BLESS YOU!!! ALLES GUTE! 🙂
OOooppps my greetings came on the previous post – so let me repeat:
From all of me to all of you: Happy Birthday – all the way from Norway!
I love what Conny said: “…sad things have made you better, not bitter.” That’s SO true!!! In many ways, you’re one of the most optimistic people I know 🙂 Happy Birthday to you, my cousin, my friend, I am so glad I got to sit next to you at all those Thanksgiving dinners growing up 🙂 See you soon! <3<3<3
Happy, Happy Birthday!!! Loved the video! Enjoy your day!! Love YOU, Mel
Happy Birthday Maribeth:) I just love seeing your photos and love seeing you with another baby girl in your arms. She is a doll!

Dearest Maribeth,
