Grandma's 89th Birthday

January 27, 2011, Thursday - We decided to celebrate Grandma's 89th Birthday a day early - this is so we could surprise her....her son flew in from Florida and she didn't know it. We let Grandma get in the door and take off her coat. Her oldest daughter, Aunt Sue came today from 3 1/2 hours away. Grandma knew she was coming. Aunt Sue starting asking how Grandma's heart is & she said "OK", and Aunt Sue said "do you think it is strong?" and then Uncle Steve came walking up to her from the other room. He was about 5 feet away when she finally figured out who was coming towards her. Her mouth dropped and she was so SURPRISED! Thankfully she did have a strong heart or she might have passed out. :)
Mom prepared a lovely lasagna meal & we had Turtle Pie. Grandma enjoyed opening presents and feeling the love. Brittany provided an impromptu balloon show after. What a fun evening! Happy Birthday Grandma!
