Happy Birthday, Meema!

Today was my Mom's birthday so we headed up to Trisha's house for a little family get together.

Here's my Mom with all the grandkids. Not such an easy task any longer.



The boys just love going to Trisha's house especially with all their cousins. The noise volume, well lets just say it's not too easy to have a conversation with all the kids running wild. It's so nice to have everyone together. These are the days you want to remember forever.

The boys gave my Mom a book for her birthday. It's called a Grandparent's Legacy. Basically, it is a journal with questions she is supposed to answer. It will tell the story of her life. When the boys are older they will have this book to know anything they wanted to know about Meema. I think it is a book that will be cherised by family in years to come.

Before heading up to Trisha's we spent a relaxing morning at home. (Well, if you call making lasagna, meatballs and baking a cake relaxing) But it was a fun morning all in all. We did our usual bird and squirrel watching from my bedroom window. This is a typical Saturday and Sunday morning event. Today we let the dogs in with us too. All I can say is I think we need to upgrade to a King size bed. With all of us and the dogs it sure is crowded.

This sure was a wonderful day.
