My Seester has ALWAYS, ALWAYS been creative, especially when it comes to gift-giving. Being on the other side of the world, stationed in Japan hasn't changed that.
She went all out (from far away) and actually threw my mom a birthday party! How she dug up the services of www.gocakego.com I have no idea, but she did. Along with a "cyber birthday party" consisting of notes written to her from various family members (aka, party attendees) and delivered via email ON her actual birthdate, she called up and Mom went through the lighting & blowing out of the candles and cutting/tasting of the cake, yes, all while my seester was on the phone!LOL Here are some images I snapped.
 On the phone and putting in the candles.

 And here's the full "party in the box" from my Seester.
(Great gift find, girl! Mom really liked the uniqueness!)
And here's the two little gifts from me to Mom:
 Mom in her new pink sweatshirt.
 And the embroidered design I made for her.
(Don't look too closely, this was the FIRST embroidery I attempted.)
Colors sort of go with the bedding in her room. (Yes, I had the forethought to even consider that. LOL)
