Grandparents are awesome.Last night, we celebrated Morgan's mom's 70th birthday! I still can't believe she's 70! She has so much spunk and energy! I guess 70 sounds about right though when your oldest son is pushing 50. We made her a special birthday dinner of filets, blue cheese stuffed potatoes and a candied walnut salad that was a big hit. The girls helped me make a lemon cake earlier in the day and they had so much fun decorating it with sprinkles. In hindsight, Morgan said that we should have put 70 candles on the cake, just so we could show the girls what 70 years looks like. When grandma asked the girls how old they thought she was, they replied by saying 6 or 7 years old? Funny!
Last year at this time, Grandma was just recovering from her bout with lymphoma and Grandpa had just had heart surgery. We are so thankful for their good health this year and look forward to many more celebrations to come. We love Grandma very much. She is the heart of this family and a beautiful example of what God designed in a mother. Her love, faithfulness, support, and sacrifice are all reasons why, "Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her. "~Proverbs 31:28
Okay - I can't believe Grandma is 70! I never would have thought. Looks like the birthday celebrations were fabulous for her and Morgan!
