Just a quiet little family get together (only about 35 of us) with lots of good food and fun!
Loralee created a perfectly fitting song "Moms Favorite Things".. that her children and their spouses sang to her. This song, and seeing her children sing it for her, really made her smile.
"Weiner dog puppies and siamese kittens,...these are a few of moms favorite things.
Then we had a mini fashion show with some of the granddaughters modeling some of Grandma's favorite clothes through the years.
After Grandma's birthday celebration, we exchanged our Christmas gifts. What a fun day!
Song: Moms favorite things
"Weiner dog puppies, and siamese kittens,
Christmas tree hunting while wearing our mittens,
Being with family; the joy that it brings
These are a few of Mom's favorite things
Cooking and baking and kneading her bread dough
Feeding us all the great food that we do know
Listening with joy as her family sings
These are a few of Mom's favorite things
Serving in temples and D.U.P gatherings
Family vacations and trailer house campings
Rocky - bench horseback rides althrough the spring
These are a few of Mom's favorite things
When the dogs bite,
when the rolls fall,
when she's mad at Dad,
She simply remembers the joy that is found
With our family-- we're so glad."
oh this makes me sad we missed that day! Great pics! It looks like it was a lot of fun!
