Happy Birthday to Gran

We had my Gran's 92nd birthday party on Saturday. Sherrie came up with the idea of having a "card" party. We sent out emails to everyone we could think of, and printed flyers and handed those around too. The idea was for family, friends, and anyone else, to mail a birthday card in care of one of us (mostly Sherrie) and we would put them in a basket for Gran to take home and spend an evening opening and reading. At last count, there were 81 cards from California, Colorado, Arkansas, Illinois, and of course, home. Cards are still coming in and we will take those to her. If you sent one, please know that she LOVED it. I talked to her this morning and she had already read through them twice. We also did a come and go party for her and didn't tell her. Mostly we kept it a secret because if she had known, she would have refused to come! Even at 92, nobody wants to mess with her! LOL. Its a good thing thats not hereditary, huh?!?!
