Great Grandpa's 97th Birthday

Each year that we get to celebrate another birthday is such a blessing! And never in my wildest dreams did I think we'd be celebrating a 97th birthday! This birthday was very special for Great-Grandpa because all of his children were there to celebrate. It was very special for us to because we hadn't seen Steve's Aunt Shirley in a few years and we glad for the extra time to spend with her.


Happy 97th Birthday Great Grandpa!

Following tradition, we had a delicious angel food cake that Aunt Janet made. Amaya especially enjoyed the frosting.

Opening presents. We made Great Grandpa some homemade fudge.
