90th Birthday Gift Help!!

We have my aunts 90th birthday party on Saturday. I don't know what to get or give her. I have already spent over $200 on decorations for her party, I made all the centerpieces, bought the balloons and rented the tank and will be there all day decorating. I also made 100 chocolate lollipops that say happy 90th Birthday and I bought styrofoam and stacked the lollipops in it to look sorta like a cake. So as you can see I have done a lot so far, but still feel like I have to give her something. I would like to get her something special, but I am thinking maybe money($50) would be better, as she is older and the money would come in handy!

So, do you think I should giver her money? $50 or more??? Or can you think of something special I might be able to get for a 90 year old woman??

Oh and if I give her money, I am going to go to toys r us and get her a Raggedy Ann doll. I printed out a sheet that said all the popular and new things when she was born in 1915 and Raggedy Ann had just come out, so I thought that would be kinda cute to get.

Any ideas..opinions!! Thank you!!!

Maybe a nice frame with a collage of pics of her growing up, family members, her wedding day, etc. I think that would be a nice tribute to her.

Or maybe you can get one of those blankets made up with her name and 90th bday at Things Remebered.

Oh, I forgot, I also made a huge collage of pics of her with the family, when she was younger, her siblings, great nieces and nephews, it is huge. It came out really nice, I used scrapbooking supplies to make it look even nicer. I forgot about that, thanks for reminding me!!

Do you know if someone sent away for that letter from the president or did they just send it on their own?? That is such a nice idea!!

Or maybe if you can find a Time magazine or other magazine from the year she was born. I think money at this point won't truly be appreciated. Something sentimental or sweet would definitely be a good idea.
