Grandma Miles celebrated her 60th birthday on the 11th of November. They came to visit the week before Thanksgiving, and we had a birthday party for her. It was a lot of fun. She was worried that we couldn't get all 60 candles on the cake. HA! Of course we could. It did take a little while to get them all lit, and we had a fair amount of wax on the cake before the song was finished. But that was just fine. You only turn 60 once, right?
We gave her a goodie jar, and an apron, which she so gracefully is modeling. I made it at super Saturday, and it is far from perfect, but I had fun making it.
We had some fun plans for when they came, but unfortunately the kids were sick. So we spent most of the time at home. It was still a great time. We played a lot of card games with Grandma and Grandpa. They taught the kids a new game, and it was a lot of fun. It is nice that the kids are getting old enough that we can do some things like that together. Pam also helped me (did most of it) can 40 lbs of chicken breast in their pressure cooker. That will be nice to have to add to the food storage. We had a great time, and are sure glad that they were still able to come visit, even though we had sickies.
