Happy 90th Birthday Grandma!

After my conferences were over in Orlando, I flew directly to Oregon to celebrate my grandma's 90th birthday with family. All 17 of us (her three boys and their families) went over to Black Butte, Oregon to spend time together. My uncle and aunt picked me up at the airport and we all drove over to Black Butte. We arrived late Friday night but my grandma stayed up to greet us! On Saturday, after my grandma had her massage at the Lodge, we went in to Sisters, OR for lunch and to shop. That night we took beautiful pictures in front of the mountains and then celebrated with dinner at the Lodge and cake at home, followed by a game of Celebrities. Most of the family left on Sunday so though it was a short weekend, we had a great time together.

My grandma is such an amazing person and I hope to be like her someday. She definitely doesn't seem 90 with her iPhone, iMac and Prius! Thanks Grandma for being such an inspiration to us all! Happy Birthday!
