Celebrate!

Sunday was Bob's birthday, so Laura, Heather and families came over and we also celebrated Father's Day.



We started with a yummy supper of sliders, mac and cheese, veggies and strawberries.




I thought Alaina and Laura looked cute sitting together so I snapped this Mother/Daughter shot.





Then there were some gifts to open.  This t-shirt says:
"Grandpa - Here to help my grandchildren get into mischief they haven't thought of yet".   So true!




Look at these cards - handmade by Alaina and Ruby.  Those cards are the best!



They agreed to come out for some photos.  They say Grandma is always taking pictures!





We got one of Grandpa and the grands too.






After some playing outside, some playing inside and enjoying cheesecake made by Laura, the girls decided to hang out on the porch.

Soon it was time for them to go home. 
Bob said he had the perfect birthday!

The pic of grandpa and the girls is adorable! Cassie looks like she is getting squished! Laura and Alaina look so much alike. I love the T-shirt! The girls did really good with the cards. Not surprising, as you have taught them well how to craft.

I think Bob is right - how could a birthday be any more perfect!?! The t-shirt is just right and those cute handmade cards are the best! Someday those girls will be so thankful that grandma took so many pictures. Good memories. I hope you are having a good week. See you again soon!

What fun! Mom and daughter do look a lot alike. Such a sweet bunch of photos. I'll bet one day they'll be so thankful that Grandma snapped a lot of photos of all these happy memories. 💙

The pic of Bob smiling as he held up the Grandpa T-shirt looks like he's ready to get into some mischief with his granddaughters:) Those cards made by Alaina and Ruby are so cute and I'm jealous that they are so much better than me at drawing.
