That's the word I got! Patty should be in good shape from her surgery by then. We are working hard to get everything prettied up for the festivities. 
Since it doesn't appear that you two will be verybusy between now and then (I did this for, or to, Don & Anne), so I will go ahead and publish my requirements now to give you plenty of lead time:
Diet Dr Pepper, chilled to 47.6 F
Meat must be USDA Prime, trimmed of all fat.
Boston Cod "Sea Salt & Vinegar - Reduced Calorie" potato chips.
Southern style potato salad, cole slaw and/or macaronni salad. (No NY Style!)
Chaise lounge with flexible nylon straps (any color okay); none of that hard plastic stuff!
M&Ms would be okay, just remove all blue ones, and wipe off any others they have touched in the bag.
Carrot cake, with whole milk, chilled to (you guessed it) 47.6 F.
XOXO ;- )
FGTB
