80th Surprise Party

For the past several weeks David's mom, 4 brothers and sisters and all the grandkids have been planning a surprise birthday party for their mom and grandmother. To say the least it was a success and she was totally surprised, it helped too that her birthday isnt til Oct 13th, but this was the best weekend for everyone to attend. Here are some pictures from the party. We all had alot of fun and the grandchildren got pictures of the family before hand and Terri put it together and it turned out great, I am pretty sure I saw David's grandmother get choked up and she is not an emotional person at all! She was very touched. Here are some pictures!



Joann, Ama, and Lyn of course with Katelyn



Katelyn is Ama's 9th and youngest great grandchild for now.



Ama looking through her book of the family through the years.



Many of the grandchildren, but not all were able to attend, this isnt even half!



These are the grandchildren and the spouses and great grandchildren.



This is my grandmother and David's grandmother with Katelyn. David's mom's family and my mom's famiy have known each other for years, way before David and I even met! Small world!



Many of the family looking through Ama's book.

It was amazing to look through the book and see how everyone has grown up and to also know that all of us would not be here if it wasnt for Ama, so Happy 80th Birthday, we owe it all to you!
