Birthday Party

Leona lives at Rancho Grande and yesterday her son and daughter-in-law hosted a birthday party for her in the clubhouse. Leona was 100 years old on February 1st. She is the one standing in the picture. Seated is her sister-in-law, Mildred.
It was a very nice party. Relatives from out-of-state were there; local relatives and friends from church, etc. Her son, Dale gave a presentation of family pictures on the overhead projector. Very interesting. I enjoyed seeing the old pictures of their family with Dale telling us who they were and where it was taken.
The lunch consisted of good homemade dishes, including zwieback! I wonder who made those. The meal was delicious. There were two birthday cakes. Here is a picture of one of them.
Leona had to renew her driver's license, so on Friday, someone, probably her son, took her to Merced to the DMV. She only missed one question on the written test. Then she had to take the driving test. They were gone for 30 minutes, driving around Merced; on the freeway and everywhere. Leona passed with flying colors and had her license renewed for another 5 years!
Not bad for someone who just celebrated her 100th Birthday!
Did I mention that Leona has been the oldest woman at the Winton Old Timers for at least the last 6 years? Way to go, Leona.
