Happy Birthday Grandma Darlene!

 

A couple of weeks ago, we celebrated my MIL Darlene's 83rd birthday.  We gathered at her house for a Mexican dinner and cake and ice cream.  It was a beautiful day outside, nearly 70*, and there were around 25 of us.  It was really a nice party.

Treavor is so cute.  He kept reminding us that he would be 16 in 17 days.  He passed his driving test with a 98!

Logen talks to his cousin who is hidden behind the roses that Jason bought his Great-Grandma with his own money.

All the great-grandkids went outside for a group picture.  The only ones missing on that side of the family that day were Jeffrey, CJ and Courtney.

Sasha had a great time too!

We'll be back with birthday #84 next year ... same bat channel!
