Happy 80th Mom, Grandma, and Great-Grandma!

What a big year! We celebrated by taking Mom to Olive Garden for a birthday dinner....Julie, Logan, Jake, and Kelley and Patrick joined Doug, me, and Mom, of course! It was a fun night and good to have someone else do the cooking! Following are some of the MANY pix....but you will get a good idea, that even tho it was Mom's birthday, Logan and Jake stole the show....:)
The birthday cake even had homemade cream cheese frosting...yummmmmm!

The staff all sang Happy Birthday, Italian Style


Hmmm....wonder what she's gonna wish for???!!!!

She did it!

Oh boy! No words needed

Mr. Jake....before his dinner of rice cereal....cuter by the minute!

Check out Logan's tongue when she's coloring...just like her Papa's!



Great Gram and Jacob



What a happy boy!


Check out the blue eyes!

The frosting was good to the last drop!

Jake and Uncle Patrick!

Grandma and her Arizona Granddaughters!

And kelllll....i always loved brown eyed girls!! ;)

Oh yah, that cake stand is great! What I really noticed though was the sprinkles...who were those for Grandma? :-) I'm sure Miss Logan was glad that Great-Grandma had those on her Birthday cake!

Julie said...

Yeah, there was a plastic lid covering the cake (like, non-see-through) while we were eating, and Logan says to Grandma, there's cake in there, with blue sprinkles. The girl has x-ray vision when it comes to cake & sprinkles!!!
