Happy 90th Birthday, "Great"!!!

It's not every day that someone you love turns 90! "Great" (AKA Great-Grandma Vera) chose to celebrate her special day by taking the whole family out to a wonderful lunch. Great loves glitzy things that sparkle, so the women wore boas and Great wore her much-deserved tiara. (She even pretended to be embarrassed at first...but that tiara didn't come off once!)

Great miraculously overcame some very difficult health problems this year and we feel so blessed that she continues to be in our lives. In fact, she puts us all to shame by attending exercise class several times a week, maintaining a very active social life and can cream us at cards any day of the week. If only we all could look so beautiful at 90!


We love you, Great!!!

I agree, if God lets me live that long I pray that He lets me do it in style too! So, by our tickers, we're one week apart exactly!
