For my mom on her birthday... :)

Hi everyone,

Today's my mom's birthday. And though this is probably one of the biggest cliches to say, she IS the best mom EVER, not to mention she is one of the biggest supporters of this blog. Hurricane Irene has rained on our parade here (actually, she hasn't even gotten here yet but that's okay because I'm already DUNNE with her. Get it??? ;D) .... anyhow, I thought I'd write the loveliest mom in the world a birthday blog before Irene knocks out our power (God forbid).

I thought I'd tie Old Hollywood in with writing a birthday blog for her. So.... because it's her birthday, I decided to do a little picture gallery sort of thing with her favorite Old Hollywood stuff.


Roman Holiday - my mom's favorite movie


I guess it runs in the family...


Cary Grant. I guess that runs in the family, too.

She also loves --








And since it's her birthday, this also gives me chance to do a Cary Grant tribute I've been wanting to do for a while (since, after all, he is my favorite actor, too).... in dedication to her, of course.


Happy birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's all for today, and wish me good luck with Ms. Dunne... lol. ;)

Love how hilariously you're taking this hurricane. I hope it's all DUNNE quickly. ;) I'll be praying you'll be safe. And tell your mum I said "Happy Brithday!!!". :)

Hehe, I tend to find humor in these things. ;) I hope it'll be DUNNE, too. :D And thanks and thanks - I'm sure we're going to be okay and I will tell her ;)

Haha, I'm glad you liked my little hurricane/Hollywood humor! I think we're supposed to get the worst of it later tonight. It's raining right now, but it's really just a drizzle. ;) I think we're going to be ok. And thanks for the birthday wishes. The hurricane was quite a present for her! :)

Oh, you're welcome... your blog is just lovely and it totally deserves it!! I always look forward to reading it. I'm really glad you like my blog :))) ... you keeping on blogging, too!

I agree with Meredith, she does have an excellent taste. Also, loved the tribute. I really like Cary and Sinatra is my favorite singer, so I thought the video was lovely.

@Meredith - I know, doesn't she?? Thanks ;)

@classicmovies - I'm glad you liked the tribute! I know, Cary and Sinatra are a really good mix. :)
