Grandma's 90th Birthday

We took off for Utah the first part of April. My Grandma...my Dad's mother and my only living grandparent...turned 90 on the 10th. We decided to make a mini-vacation out of the occasion. We borrowed my Dad's Denali and us, Jay and Heather and Chad took off on Wednesday and spent until Sunday with my younger sister, Jenn, and her family in Richmond, UT. My parents were already there, JR and Becky flew in on Wednesday also and Teri and the rest of her family came on Thursday. We were only missing Todd, Jacki and Quinn and Aaron.

We decided to scrapbook our letter that we had each written for our Grandma that was going into one ginormous book for her.

We had a fabulous time visiting with cousins we hardly see and were so happy to be able to celebrate with our sweet Grandma! Sunday, the Crawfords, Jay and Josh headed for home while Heather, Me, all the kiddos, and JR & Becky hopped into the RV for Arizona...

More to come.
