Celebrations



We have 2 special occasions to celebrate today.

Our favorite Jersey Girl, Ms. Chelle, is celebrating her birthday!


Guess where she celebrated her birthday this past weekend?
You got it,
Down the Shore!
You's Rock, Chelle!



Today is also a very special day for our good friend, HiC, aka Madi's Mom.


Yes, Madi's Mom is retiring today!


See how excited Madi is about having her mom home all the time.

 I'm sure this day will be filled with lots of hugs, laughs, memories, and maybe even a few tears.
Enjoy this wonderful day, my friend, you've certainly earned it!

I'd like to share my Retirement Motto:

 Retirement is waking up in the morning with nothing to do and by bedtime having done only half of it.

~ Unknown wise, retired person




With so much to celebrate, we decided to call in Kool and The Gang.
Everybody, get up outta your seats and dance!
