90 YEARS!!

Seriously?! My grandmother is 90?!...so hard to believe! Last Saturday we got together to celebrate...I was so glad that just about everyone could make it. Husband and Kole ended up having a make-up football game added to the schedule at the last minute and they couldn't come....I was sad they had to miss.

I was telling Kole (over the phone) how we were going to Gran's house to celebrate because she was 90-YEARS-OLD now!! I said, 'Kole, can you believe she is 9-0?! Isn't that such a long life? 90 is A LOT of years!'. And he said, 'No it isn't....she isn't even 100 yet!'. So I guess now-a-days you are not considered old until you are in the triple digits...that boy makes me laugh!!

I couldn't wait to get my hands on this little fella (Will). Both of my newest nephews are little Mini-Me's of their Daddy's....it's actually quite scary!



L*O*V*E this Daddy keeping watch over his little Angel....



Anna (my cousin's daughter), she just gets more and more beautiful every time we see her....



Best Buddies (putting up with their Aunt Hoddie making them pose for more pictures)....



Ummm, yea....not so happy anymore!



Gran with 8 of her 9 GREAT-grand kids (missing Kole)!!

Can you tell anything is wrong with this picture? Bryce was not warmed up to everyone yet and he would NOT sit by everyone, so I had to photo shop him into the picture....so funny!



Oh yes, the infamous Cousins picture (and we actually have everyone in the picture this time)!!



Four generations of woman (I LOVE that both girls are holding Gran's hand....PRECIOUS!)....



Now it's time to hold my other baby!!





The birthday girl - Ella Wray!



I mean, did you think I would actually put him down to take pictures?



Sweet Bella (Kristin's baby) with her Grandma (sorry Lisa....I guess I have to use the 'G' word until Bella is old enough to talk and come up with a name for you!).



Precious Leigh & Trey kept these kiddos occupied for quite some time picking (and eating) pecans.....





And Bryce was very content riding the scooter he got for his birthday (still gotta blog about B's birthday party)!!



IT WAS SUCH A FUN DAY!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRAN...WE LOVE YOU!!!

Thank you, EVERYONE, for coming to celebrate...can't wait to see you all again (hopefully VERY soon).

Precious times...I remember when we all celebrated Granny Anderson's 90th...and next May, Grandmother will be 90. Life is short and we must enjoy these memories while we can. So happy that you all had this time with your Gran.

OK I love your blog, read it everyday! But want to get a blog makeover and wanted to see how long the waiting list is and had a few other questions but my computer will not let me email you!?! Don't know why, sooo anyways what is your email? just trying to get a new blog, because as you can see mine is very boring :)
