On this sunny, warm July 10th, we celebrated Gran's 91st birthday at Traders Point Creamery!
We had her birthday lunch here last year, so we decided to make it a tradition.
We ordered some celebratory Prosecco and had a toast to her health.
Gran indulged us with the drinks, eagerly opened her card, and talked endlessly about her plans later with friends.
Ashley had selected the most perfect gift card and gift for gran.
We told her it was something she needs but that she didn't even know she needs!
She carefully unwrapped the gorgeous present after we had placed our order.
Emily helped her open the box and read some of the explanatory materials.
She was so surprised! She said she usually tries to keep 21st century items out of her home, but she would welcome this!
Soon the frittatas and BLT arrived. Bright, cheerful presentation and incredible freshness!
Gran was loving her BLT and gobbled up all the fresh berries.
After lunch, we had them bring out the strawberry shortcake!
Gran chose vanilla as her free scoop.
The candles flickered her age to all!
She had a little trouble getting them out proclaiming, "I used up all my blowing power!"
She made sure to turn 91 on its head figuratively and literally!
She's 91 and still having fun!
We told them we would be back next year.
We talked about memories, birthdays and how the years rush by.
We remembered the year and how wonderful it is to be close together for birthdays, holidays and every days.
Nothing could beat watching her proudly blow out those candles and remark at how she cannot believe she made it this far.
We said we would keep her for 91 more and hope she outlives us all.
While we know we cannot keep her forever, we will keep her today.
91 with the spirit of 19
Lovely twin time.
