Celebrating a Birthday ~our Family Matriarch turns 95

We’re celebrating a big Birthday this week.
Hubby’s Mother will be 95 years old.

We have always gathered with family on birthdays.
This lady’s birthday, being in July,
usually included a meal prepared out on the grill,
and sometimes concluded with a Tornado Warning!

When you are a Senior,
the best gifts are those that are consumable.

Just two years ago, our treat was a trip to Storybook Land
to ride the Storybook Land Express around the park.

Family was always important to Great Grandma.
Here she is with her four sisters, whom she misses dearly.

Until a month ago, she enjoyed the independence
of living in her own home.
And now she is appreciating the benefits
of an Assisted Living Facility.

Perhaps her greatest joy comes from visits
with her granddaughters and great grandchildren.
This is the baby that made her a Great Grandma.
And now Baby Jack is six years old.

Jack’s little brother Henry enjoys visits to Great GMa’s house, too.
She has Vintage Toys.

You all remember how she loved watching little Joelle
play when they met this past Thanksgiving.

This weekend, we will gather again to celebrate this lady.
She would be thrilled to receive your cards and notes in her mailbox.
Leave a comment and I’ll send her address to you.

Take care,
~Natalie
