Happy Birthday Grannie!
This past Sunday my Grannie turned 81 years old! There were many times over the last year that I wondered if she would make it to her next birthday. She overcame so many things this last year! Almost a pound of fluid removed from around her heart, surgery to remove tumors from both of her kidney's, and a few small skin cancers removed from her face. She's such a strong lady though so it doesn't surprise me at all that she's still here!
On her birthday we took her to her favorite food place ever! Whataburger! I remember the very first time we took her there a little over a year ago, she just couldn't stop talking about it! I think we've probably eaten there over 30 times in the last year because she loves it so much. It became the go-to place after each one of her appointments here in town. So of course when we asked her where she wanted to go for her birthday it was her first choice!
The boys had a blast with her too! She has them so spoiled to cookies. Every time we see her she gives them each a vinilla - creme filled cookie. Cookie was actually Aydan's first word, and he learned it from her....I was really hoping I'd get one of them to say Momma first, but no - two "dadda"s and a "cookie". That's okay though makes great memories!
She's going to live to be 180 though so 99 more to go! :) I wonder if Whataburger will stick around that long?
