Happy 80th Birthday, Grandma!

 

Saturday we made a day trip down to Gatlinburg, Tennessee to surprise Grandma for her 80th birthday! We had a great dinner at The Partridge In A Pear Tree restaurant. My cousins wife, Stephanie, and Aunt Linda did a great job setting up the room. It was beautifully decorated in pink, white and burlap. There were two delicious white buttercream rose cakes, excellent food, and great conversation around the table. I had written up 80 things that have happened in history over the course of Grandma's lifetime. It was neat to see just how much has happened and how so much has changed! The technology changes alone - how far things have come!

I was happy that we were able to pull off the surprise =) She seemed really, really happy and I was so glad that we could make the trip to spend the special day together!

Grandma Menees is really a remarkable lady. She love the Lord so much. She is faithful and bold in her walk. She is caring and genuinely interested in whats going on in our lives. She loves those great grandchildren so much =) She is talented, wise, smart and beautiful. I am thankful for everything she has taught me over the years and I look forward to seeing how God is going to continue using her!

Happy Birthday!
