SEVENTH DECADE
WEEKEND
7TH DECADE WEEKEND
And Still I Rise!
August 21–23, 2026 • Chicago, Illinois
“I have lived, I have endured, I have blossomed… and I am still rising.”
WELCOME
Lanell’s 7th Decade Weekend Birthday Celebration
Welcome to a weekend crafted with love, laughter, and legacy.
As I step into my 7th decade, I do so with gratitude for every chapter, every lesson, and every rise. Chicago will be our backdrop as we celebrate life, joy, friendship, and the beauty of becoming.
I’m honored to share this moment with you. Let’s rise together.
Saturday, August 22 • 8:00 PM
(Boat Experience or Speakeasy — final details coming soon)
A simple, fun touchpoint:
Wear one bold thing you’ve always wanted to wear — the piece your younger self dreamed of, your grown‑woman self earned, and your rising self can finally rock.
A hat. A glove. A dramatic earring. A pop of color. A statement shoe.
Just one item. Just for fun. Just because you can.
