Grandparents Forbes' Birthday Party

My Mom threw my Grandma and Grandpa Forbes a surprise birthday party for both of them since their birthdays are within days of each other. They had no idea we were all going to be there. Almost all of the family was there except for a few. Even my uncle Daren from Colorado and Uncle Kim and Aunt Jonna from St. George were able to be there. I love when we all get together because we love each other and we love being with each other; fun, so fun.

My Grandma and Grandpa Forbes are so special. They were very close to our family all growing up and I have so many happy memories of them. We used to spend the night at their house and they would let us stay up and eat popcorn and watch classic movies. Then they let us eat a bowl of cereal before bed. Then we got to wear special PJ's that they had for us at their house. In the morning Grandma would make us waffles with yogurt on them and we would stuff ourselves. I love, love them.


Cute baby Violet. Don't you just want to eat her up?

I am so glad we had this party; it was great to see everyone and spend time together. Family is the best.

What fun. I love extended family gatherings. They sure don't happen often enough.

And amen to the fun last Friday. I have been gathering some stuff. I now have some things to contribute.
