It's only half a hundred!

Today I hope you'll join us all in wishing Sarah a really splendid day today - celebrating her 50th birthday at her party on a beach in Cornwall.

Below you can find some pictures we've created and a few words we've written by way of......

a Blogging Birthday Card to the Birthday Girl!


Ronell:

Happy birthday Sarah!
May the waves never be small and the horizon never come closer and may the "sailing" always be challenging!

...s@#$...it's getting heavier every year!!...


Jeanette: Sarah, Happy Birthday. I hope your day is everything you want it to be and that you spend time with family and friends who give you pleasure.

Fifty years is a milestone that some dread, and others look forward to. Although I have been there a few years ahead of you, I can.t offer many words of advice that ease the path towards your next milestone in life. Just keep doing what you're doing, its obviously working very well.

Laura: Happy Big Birthday, Sarah! No need to go looking for the fountain of youth--it is found in the act of painting!
Love,
Laura

Lindsay: Sarah, welcome to the very democratic group of "over 50". Thou' you can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain, you can sure be any age you want anywhere else! Many Happy Returns of The DAY!!!
Lindsay

Katherine: Sarah - Many congrats on reaching a really great age! This is not a time for feeling "over the hill" - it's a time for standing tall and looking out at the sweeping vistas of what still lies in front of you!

Have a great birthday party down on the beach - I wish I was there!
Katherine


Vivien: Happy Birthday Sarah!

Have a great day with good friends, good food, wine and the sea - what more could anyone want? :>)

Here's to you sailing on painting for another 50 <>
