This past Thursday our Granny turned 80 years old! I have only known her for 7 of those 80 years but I can tell you that it definitely doesn't feel like it's only been that short amount of time. Since day one Granny and at that point in time Pa have made me feel like one of their own. Grandparents they were, whether that meant blood or not and I am so blessed to have been able to experience their love. Jess and I used to get so tickled at Granny and Pa because he would get on her if she said something wrong and they would bicker back and forth like two teenaged lovers. It was hilarious! Granny still paves the way for hilarious statements at gatherings and she makes turning 80 every bit of fabulous!
Jess' family worked really hard to make sure Granny knew just how awesome her birthday was and it all turned out very nice!
The theme was a baseball one because she absolutely loves baseball and hamburgers were served by a local restaurant out of Longview. Cupcakes then followed for dessert which made it the perfect way to end the ballpark themed menu. Around 65 guests total were there and she enjoyed walking around, greeting them all and posing for pictures with them.
Happy Birthday Granny! I think we can all say you are such a blessing to have in our lives. Thank you for the endless laughs, conversations and for all of the love you have given each and every person that is lucky enough to know you. I hope your day was all that you hoped for.
Love,
E
