Yes, happy birthday Betty, and thanks for speaking out about so many issues at a time it was unfashionable for women to have the courage to do it. You still have my admiration and gratitude.
Happy Birthday to Mrs. Ford!
Happy Birthday Betty! You *go*, girl!
Happy Birtday Mrs. Ford. All the best!!!!
I know the Ford’s redid the West? Sitting hall with the floral draperies, replacing the yellow Nixon curtains. I guess for the 1970’s they were in fashion…*ahem*
I like the Ford’s Oval Office choices, replacing the Gold Nixon drapes and bright blue rug with more muted gold and rust tones.
I never liked their choice of removing the wallpaper in the Presidents Dining Room and painting the walls yellow, though I do understand Mrs. Ford’s reasoning behind it, that she didn’t like to look at scenes of death and war while she ate!
I can’t think of any other big changes from the Ford Era, other than moving the present Green Room chandelier to its current location in 1975…

Mrs. Ford also redid the Queen’s bedroom and the Library.
Today, Betty Ford turns 90 years old. Best wishes to her and her family.
