Well, I can speak only for myself, but I wish I looked that good after working many days straight! She's a classic rare beauty and absolutely stunning in the previous photo, can't wait to see the "good" one!

I love the background 'gate', her hands on her hips and the way her feet are posed. Really shows her off! This photo is absolutely perfect! What a lovely woman.

Congrats, Juju, on helping to make her special day even more so! Bet she is excited now!

Hi Juju, those invitations looks great! So cool, BigDog's Mom turns 100. Juju you must ask her for all of us, the secret to living longer.

And for those wondering what Momma looks like now, here is the picture she just sent me to mail in to Willard Scott. This is Momma at the last luau she attended. Momma is the one sitting down. The other woman is Momma's friend and Scrabble partner. She is probably 40 years younger than Momma.

Edit: Oh! Misbehaven, to answer you question. Could have something to do with that glass of moonshine she is holding.

Juju, Well genes don't lie, Momma is still a beautiful lady. It's very hard to believe that she is going to be 100.

Juju, the invitation turned out fantastic! I love the "better" picture of momma...what another classic pose of her!

And to see her current picture...wow, she's adorable and doesn't look to be 100 years old.

Where do I find the moonshine??

Love both of the pictures, Momma recently and Momma then. I can see her expression and the same lady in both of those photos.

Sent this in to the Today Show today:

Dear Mr. Scott,

Enclosed are photographs of Dorothy XXXXXXX, who will turn 100 on September 5, 2004. Dorothy was born Dorothy YYYYYYYY on September 5, 1904. She currently lives, unassisted, in her own home in the woods at 123 Main St, Podunk, AR, with her fourth husband. Her telephone number is 5xxxxxx, and my telephone number (daughter-in-law) is 00xxxxxxxx2.

Dorothy was married to her first husband, Bigdog Daddy, for 56 years. After his death, she remarried at age 85, again at age 95, and married her current husband two years ago at the age of 98. Naturally she has to keep getting younger husbands because they just don't hold up as well as they used to.

Dorothy maintains an active lifestyle. She drives, cooks, sews, gardens, plays Scrabble, and can whip your butt at playing bridge. On her birthday you might just find her playing golf with the mayor of Podunk.

I hope you can find time to feature Dorothy on her birthday. She is having a blast shocking everybody by telling them she is going to be 100 and planning her 100th birthday party.

Sincerely,
Juju

This had me LOL at the office. I then had to show everyone the picture and had them guess how old she was. THEN I read the letter that went with it and they all laughed at the same thing I did! :-)

She is very lucky to have you for a DIL, but it sounds like you are lucky too!

Okay, here is the latest Momma project. After I got all of the other ones done and off to the guests, Momma decided people should also know what she looks like now (Momma is kind of one of those what have you done for me lately people). So she managed to find the nice photo of her and Brad at their wedding, the photo I was trying to get her to find to mail in to Today show, but she couldn't find it then. She IS a hundred years old, after all.

I got 60 copies made of it and bought some paper to mount it on. She had some wording she wanted on it about her outfit and the blind date, and the guy who introduced them and the people who witnessed the marriage.

I had a very difficult time choosing the paper, which is why it has a tropical theme. LOL. Momma's colors just washed out everything else. I would have preferred same type of paper as the party announcement with purple border, but they didn't have it.

It looks pretty good. Haven't made them up en masse yet, so there is still time for tweaking. Showed it to Bigdog and he said, looks good, put it up for vote at the Clubhouse. LOL. There's not really anything to vote on, since I don't have any alternatives made up.

Beautiful Juju!

She looks breathtaking! She is as pretty today as she was in her younger years (though I think she's younger than all of us! LOL) I love her smile, it make me want to smile.

I like the paper!
