We celebrated my grandmother's 90th birthday last weekend.
Since my grandfather was still at the rehabilitation home, we had the party there.
Mamaw's memory hasn't been the greatest, so she was real surprised we all came to help her celebrate :)
All my family was there.
So was my aunt.
And my grandmother's niece (who was raised as her sister) and her husband and daughter.
Great Grands
L-R
Simon, Henry, Margaret Gray, Liam, Emma, Madeline, Baby Larkin, and Sarah Grace
my sibs
Josh, Elizabeth, Jack, and Sarah
Our own real party crasher!!!
She just walked herself right on in and sat down.
She enjoyed the cake.
I guess we weren't that exciting since she fell asleep at one point, but made sure to thank us for inviting her when she left :)
Mamaw and Aunt Wanda
Growing up, my grandparents would often take us to go swimming at her house.
Madeline and Larkin- 2 weeks old!
Tom and Uncle Jack (Wanda's husband)
He was telling Tom how he works at Macy's to stay out of Wanda's way :)
Liam and H with Papa
Sweet
After I took this pic, Mamaw stuck her tongue out...
... so we got a crazy pic. No wonder my kids love the crazy pic- it's in their blood.
The kids were actually a lot better behaved than I thought they were going to be. They had fun running around the courtyard, hiding in the curtains (the only "toy" in the room), and took time to look at a book.
Henry loved seeing Uncle Josh.
Here he is showing my kids his motorcycle... Henry hung onto every word.
Although Simon wasn't cranky the entire time, he was exhausted and finally gave in just as the party was starting to unwind.
Sarah and Leif under my super fancy banner Amy helped me make.
Such a special day celebrating such a special woman!!
