Ninety Five Years!

Today my grandma celebrated her 95th birthday. She was born in Chile in 1914. It's hard to fathom all of the changes that have occurred during her lifetime. Grandma is a feisty lady and can be quite a character! Nathan and I visited Grandma yesterday, but I neglected to bring my camera. We had a nice visit and she enjoyed the small treat we brought for her - an apple pie from McDonald's! For her birthday, Grandma's three sons and daughters-in-law took her out for a steak dinner. As you can see, Grandma was a very good sport when they brought out a cowboy hat for her to wear while they sang to her!

It is a special blessing to see my grandma interacting with my children - just a few of her great-grandchildren. I am so thankful that Beth, Allie and Nathan will always have special memories of their great-grandma.
