Yes, I did, on May 24. My big day. It was awesome to enjoy the whole day, doing what I wanted (like the old days...before moving here and going through these renovations).
We celebrated at a restaurant (BJ's Brew House) with all my local kids and grandkids. It was awesome.
However a tornado touched down nearby during the meal and two more, one before the meal and one afterwards much nearer my home.
Also there was an Earthquake!
My birthday really shook everyone up!

@Jeanniemaries I like the double number too. My husband already turned 71, I cannot believe it.

@LadyDuck I'm shocked at how old I am already! My grandparents were ancient when they were this age.

Thank you so much!!! I was used to earthquakes growing up near San Francisco but not here in Ohio! That was quite special. (no damages)

The whole restaurant full of people were looking at phones and trying to see out windows for the tornado. No official plan was put into place for safety,but we did all survive! Haha

@Jeanniemaries I think I would take the earthquake over a tornado!

No one got hurt. A few businesses have quite a bit of clean up and rebuilding though.
