This last weekend we had an amazing opportunity to go to Montana to see my Gramma Kay and surprise her with a big party for her 90th Birthday.
My Gramma is amazing. She is one of the most healthy strong 90 year old women there ever was. I'm sure we will be celebrating again in 10 years for an even bigger mile stone in her life.
Here are a few pictures of the night of her party.
Isn't she just radiating awesomeness!?
My sister Debbie came from New York, Gramma was sure surprised!

He is so good to her, and I am glad she has someone to spend time with.

We were also able to just spend time together, and it was wonderful. I really enjoy being with my Gramma. Her life was amazing, with many ups and downs. Her way of living and raising a child are so different that what I know, and I feel like there is so much to learn from her. She was raised during the Great Depression and with something all too similar here, I feel like her wisdom on how to survive through it, and things she still does because of that experience (ie, re using tinfoil) really make me take a step back and take a good look at my self.
Anyway,.. here are some pictures of just us being together.

What? You were in Montana? That is practically IOWA! Why didn't you drive like 13 more hours and stay at the Carr's?
Food poisoning may occur at the Carr home at like 2:00am... but I doubt it.
