I wanted to share this with everyone because it was so clever. On February 11, 2009 my mother Dorothy turned 85 years old. Mom took her first plane trip that day from Salt Lake City, Utah to San Jose, California; she was coming to live with me. The flight crew on board the plane surprised her with the most clever little birthday crown. The crown was completely made from little bags of peanuts connected by red plastic swizzle sticks. Now who would have ever thought of that? I'm always amazed at what people come up with. As you can see in the pictures, the dandy little crown was placed on her head. The passengers joyfully wished her a happy birthday as they each passed her on their way off the plane. She even got a certificate for being a first time flyer which was signed by the whole crew and a new luggage tag. Southwest rocks!
I wasn't sure how she'd react to the take off, bumpy turbulance, looking out the window and the landing that day, but she truely enjoyed herself and her birthday was one to be scrapbooked.
