I just have to say it. My family is the best in the world. Yeah, yours is great too, but mine's the best. ;) (Ok so family in general is the best, but I am so blessed to be related to so many incredible people and to be part of this huge web of unconditional love! There's so much support and admiration in our family and I love it! Gram's 80th bday party was definitely a success!)
Ok, ok, here's pictures... I'm ready to pretend some small child took most of them because it's really hard to get good pictures in the seminary building. Most of the coloring is weird and it was sort of a hurried candid sort of thing (because I need to just get over being shy and learn patience) so I apologize for how good these aren't. (But let's start with Erin's round two of pictures.)
They're unedited still because there wasn't time! And yesterday was cloudy and my el cheapo reflector plan wasn't working as well as it did the day before, but Er still looks beautiful!
(These are from when she walked in and realized what was going on... I think she was sufficiently surprised! Well done, family!)

| Cuteness :) |

Seriously, someday I hope I'm as cutesy and
wonderful with my husband as grandma and grandpa are
together. I just love watching them! Ah! So cute. :) |
(Warning: from here throughout the end of the pictures there are a lot of baby hungry women snuggling one of the world's cutest babies. Check out her hair! Holy cow, she's like an eskimo!)
(The next few are Cameron's birthday singing to grandma, "Would You Go With Me"! He totally rocked it! His voice is pretty awesome, and we love hearing him sing. :) Way to go Cam!)

cuteness attacks here.) |

ReplyDeleteShan, Love the pictures! Thanks for documenting the party. It was great, wasn't it? Hey, did you hear we get to plan a baby shower soon? Won't that be fun? I'm looking forward to seeing Erin's complete portfolio! Sure hope your Sunday was teriffic. And, "Fly Me to the Danger Zone". : )
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you got a camera for Christmas. The pictures are wonderful! I spent way to much time in the kitchen and didn't even get to hold that cute baby:( So I really loved those pictures. I will be a grandma soon. Yay! We do have a great family.
ReplyDeleteGrammie MariLyn is the most beautiful woman in the world. She has a way of carrying and spreading love and light with her wherever she goes. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful family and a role model like her to look up to and learn from. I am so sad that I could not be there to celebrate another year in this amazing womans life.
