Happy 90th Grandma!

My sweet grandma turned 90 on Friday! We had a little shin-dig for her at her church on Saturday. My mom and aunt put together a really nice party. They had pictures of grandma through the years, pictures of my grandpa (who we miss!), beautiful flowers, food, and music. She had almost 100 guests show up, including her 9 (+1 on the way) great-grandchildren. It was a lot of fun! She is a really wonderful lady who looks and acts much younger than her 90 years. She is so active and fun to talk to and be with. She has such a great faith in the Lord too. We are so happy that we are blessed to have her with us!
As a side note, I got many "wow! That baby will be here any day now huh?" and "have they checked for twins?" As you can see in the picture, I've most definitely "blossomed"!!!! But no, I am not having twins, and I went to the dr. today and I actually only measure a week ahead! Baby measured a week ahead at my last 2 ultrasounds (my only 2 ultrasounds), so maybe it will be an August 2 baby instead of August 9th??? Who knows.....

Mindy! You look so cute and your baby has grown! May be the shirt? Either way you look precious! Also, can I just say to please please cherish your grandmother and spend as much time with her as you possibly can. I miss both of mine SO much and would give anything to pick up the phone and call them. I always knew there would come a day when they wouldn't be here but when it actually came I didn't realize how hard it would be. Can't wait to see you tomorrow night!

you look adorable.

good to see your fam at church yesterday. i was thinking about you at home in the PEACE ... and hoping that you were sleeping.

your gmom is amazing. it is hard to believe that she is 90. mom said that you all looked so cute - i am glad that they were able to be there.

see you tomorrow night!
(by the way, glad that you updated your blog - sometimes i get tired of seeing the same thing when i refresh :) :) :) ) -- not that you haven't been busy or anything. Don't you have a 2 year old? Just moved? AND you are pregnant?

Nope .. no excuses.
