Grandma Vivian's Birthday Party

On Saturday, December 10th we celebrated Grandma Vivian's 86th birthday at the nursing home. Mom sent out invites to close family and a few friends. We had a nice turn out. Aunt Patty came from California (Grandma's oldest daughter) and Uncle Tom (Grandma's only son) came from Bowman, ND. We all kept Patty and Tom's arrival a secret from Grandma. To say she was surprised would be an understatement. It was a fun party and one Grandma will remember for a long time. I look forward to next years party!!
