Happy Happy Birthday!

I love the Mission Inn. It is the most beautiful place in town. My daughter, my grandson and I and the hubby took his mom to lunch here for her 87th birthday next week since I will be away. She is doing so well and looks so good for her age and since losing the love of her life 6 months ago. She loved it and the food was pretty good too!

Here we are:

Showing her around...the architectural detail is so pretty and the flowers and decor. I just love showing everyone around.

This is the chair that was built for President Taft when he visited in 1909. As you can tell...he was a big man! All the presidents since Roosevelt have stayed at the Mission Inn. Kat and I have a photo of us in this chair. Check that out here!

This little guy just loves being with his grandma, grandpa, great-grandma and mommy!! Actually he was laughing so hard because we were trying to get him to make the snoring sound like his daddy makes. He thought we were pretty funny. We think he's pretty funny when he does it!

Showing Mason the parrots.


We had to have a birthday cupcake at Casey's Cupcakes around the corner from the Mission Inn. They are pretty good!!

Lenie makes aprons and she thought this one was pretty cute!

See those cupcakes....they call my name BIG time!! I tried the banana one...yummmmmo!! The carrot cake one and the ....are all good!!

A little gift for my sweet mother-in-law.

A new photo album full of family gatherings since last year. She loves to look at them and show her guests.

She and my daughter have a special bond...they are so sweet together just like when Danielle was little. Here they are just visiting and my daughter receiving a little bracelet that her grandma let her wear when she was little at her grandma's house.

Special times....I love these times.

Make time to be together and enjoy these times...you never know if you will get another chance. Make up with a loved one who has hurt you or wronged you. It's not worth it to be mad for long. I know it's hard...I've been there and going through a hard one with a loved one. I'm trying to work it through. Pray for me this week when I see this person.

I hope to look this good at 85!


Bella loved the purse!
Selena with Dylan, her little man!
Grandma Lenie with all her grandchildren and her two great grandchildren and one in the womb!
My mother-in-law turns 85 tomorrow and we celebrated tonight with a little surprise party.  Ray, my father-in-law at 88 years of age thought she needed a surprise party because she had never had one.  She thought she was going to dinner with Damon and Peggy, however, both her sons and their wives with all of the grandchildren and her two great grandchildren made the trek to celebrate.  She is still the fashionista at 85 although now courtesy of Ross.  She loves that store so Dwight and I got her an $85 gift card to continue her shopping every Tuesday on Senior discount day.  Even Bella who had been sick that morning came to sing "Happy Birthday" to Grandma Lenie and then proceeded to tell her that she liked her purse.  
Awww....I love that little girl!!!
