Getting ready to go to Gma Ward's 90th bday party and Geraldine walked out of her room just as I was putting on Mya's shoes and I said, "Gerald, you and Mya look alike! and are your shoes sparkly?" and by golly they were! We did not plan this at all!! Everyone at the party asked if we planned it. haha isn't that funny?!
twinners!
At the party in Bloomington Idaho-Baylor and I enjoying the festivities.
We played games that gma w. used to play when she was a little girl and jump roping was my fave! This is Uncle Phil and I jumping to "teddy bear teddy bear". I even double dutched! I loved it so much that the same week I ordered some jump ropes so we could do it down in Sanataquin!
What a special lady! She is 90 and lives on her own, picks her raspberries, writes bday cards to EVERY child, grandchild and great grand child! We just love her!
All the great grand kids
babies that were born this year! haha and we were missing 2 others
After the party we stayed saturday night with Gma W. and we had the best time ever!! We were all just so happy! It was just a lazy rainy weekend of eating her famous pancakes, talking, looking at a Book of Mormon that was given to her father in law by the prophet George Albert Smith and playing with the kids. I felt the spirit so strong in her house, it just testified to me that the only thing that matters is family. all we need is a roof over our head, food, and laughs! Gma and Gpa W were ranchers and their home feels like a country farm home and that's what Dean and I want to raise our kids in, a home with a lot of country space, the mtns, simplicity, the gospel, and fun! I can't wait to visit her again!
I'm so glad that you guys were able to come. I had a fabulous time hanging out with you guys at Grma's house - You are a jewel!
