Snapshots From Her 90th Birthday


We just celebrated my grandma's 90th birthday. You can call her Gram. She's just about the cutest person in the whole wide world. We had her party at a beautiful restaurant on the lake. It was a "girls only" event... all the women in the family came, plus a few girlfriends and a special neighbor.
I love the picture on the bottom row in the middle. Gram had just opened up a Bare Minerals make up set and couldn't believe her eyes. She got so excited about it!
How cute is that!?
I love to hear her stories about when she was a little girl living on a farm. She says she was hyper and could take on any boy. She could jump on a horse's back, hold onto the mane and ride bare back waaay too fast... and scare my great-grandma to death.

She's also smart and always gives the best advice.


Happy birthday, Gram. I love you!

Your pictures are beautiful and really showcase what a special woman your grandma is. You can tell her that I said she doesn't look even near to 90 years old. (Must be the Bare Minerals!) :)
