This is a picture of Rebekah, with my Aunty Ruth & Uncle Gordon,taken few weeks ago in their back garden.
Today is a big day for Ruth - it is her 70th birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RUTH
Ruth is my Dad's older sister, and has been an amazing big sister to him, and wonderful Aunt to us. I remember lots of fun times with them when I was younger and we all lived in England - but even after we moved they took many a vacation to foreign lands - only to spend the entire trip helping my parents work on their house or garden! Even when they visited me (in 2007) Ruth worked like a maniac cooking, cleaning and doing all my ironing! Seriously, you want Ruth as a house guest.
In addition to being all around super organized and energetic, Ruth keeps track of all of us, never misses birthdays, writes lovely long letters regularly, AND reads all our blogs! Really, it's one thing when your brother gets married and has 8 kids to keep track of them all - but when they all get married and have kids too ... amazing.
It's evening here now, so late in England and Ruth, you are probably in bed. I hope you've had a wonderful day and were spoiled rotten - you deserve every minute of it. We love you.

What a lovely photo and beautiful flowers in the background.
I could get used to all these lovely comments. I'm planning on being 70 again next year, it has been so good!
We agree entirely with you Tania, Ruth is FABULOUS.
