Happy Birthday To An Amazing Woman

We celebrated Gram’s birthday this past weekend with a little picnic at a country park near our house.  She and Dad drove up to spend some time with all of us, and we were happy to have them come.

088Gram really loves brownies, so she bought some for her and Savannah to make for the party.  Savannah wouldn’t do it, though, insisting she do it with her Daddy as a “surprise”.  So, Savannah was in charge of bringing the “surprise birthday cake”.  Gram wanted 3 candles for the past, present, and future.

We all count ourselves blessed to have Gram in our lives.  She is such a strong, capable, generous, and loving person who’s birthday we look forward to celebrating for many more years.
