Happy Birthday Grandma L.!!!


Today is my Grandma Lehman's (my mom's mom) 85th birthday! We celebrated it yesterday with the family. My Grandma is such a special person and I have some of the best memories of her and being at her house. She's truly fits the perfect description of a Grandma (and more). I think everyone needs a Grandma Lehman in their life! When asked how she wanted to celebrate her 85th birthday, she told the family that she wanted as many of us as possible to come to church with her. What a testimony to the kind of person she is!! There were 34 family members at church with her, including all 5 of her children, 9 out of her 13 grandchildren (the ones who weren't there live out of state), 9 out of her 15 great grandchildren (at least I hope I'm counting correctly!!) and her brother and his wife. Afterwards we went to my aunt and uncle's house for dinner. I'm sure she loved just being around her family and watching all of us interact (and boy, can we interact!!).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA!!

I am with Brenda... sad to not only be "one of the four", but for Luke to be "one of the six." But thanks for sharing the photos. They look great. Is that Tony's yard??
