90th Birthday!

So Sunday we held Kelly's (my husbands) grandmas 90th birthday party. Can imagine .... 90 years! I think about all the changes she has seen our world go through! Its amazing!

We all knew for a week that Kellys mom wanted us to write letters to Grandma, just to let her know how we all feel about grandma. Well of course, anyone who has ever met me ....... ever, knows I am the queen of the last minute! The party was supposed to start around 2 about 35 minutes from our house. So of course here it is 12:30 and I am printing some pictures from grandmas genealogy I had received, typing my husbands letter(he wrote it, but I knew she wanted to actually read it), typing my letter, and then trying to get dressed. So needless to say ..... we were late! Whats new????? LOL

All of her grandkids, except one were there. he lives in Milwaukee, with his wife, and their 2 boys. So none of them were able to be there, but all of the rest of us were. As well as one of her long time best friends , that she grew up with! They had her come down to surprise her!

It was an afternoon filled with laughter, talking, just general hanging out enjoying family time! Just a nice enjoyable, relaxing day! Its so rare that all of us can get all of our different scheduals lined up where all of us can be in one place. Those are the times that we all cherish, and I hope that my kids do as well as they grow up. The times where our family seems more like the Cleavers and less like the Osbournes LOL. Don't get me wrong, I have said before and I stick by this, we may not be the most conventional family out there, but it works for us!
