Pink Flamingos
We had a fabulously fun 80th birthday party for Grandma Donna/Nonna over Labor
Day weekend in Springfield, Ohio. We had lots of pink flamingos and most of the
family was able to be there, decked out in pink. It was a great weekend. Grandma had
been in the hospital almost up to the time that everyone was supposed to come, and
she was afraid that we wouldn't. I think that she really enjoyed her party, even if she
was pretty tired by the end.

Michelle engineered this gift - she had each of us make Grandma a scrapbook page,
and then she assembled it into an album. This way, even people that couldn't be at
the party, were able to participate in a special gift for Grandma. She really liked it.
Great idea, Michelle!
Flamingos, flamingos everywhere - I took lots of pictures of all the different
flamingos, but I'll refrain from posting them all.
Doug's pink outfit was fabulous. Grandma's reaction to him walking in was priceless!

This is my scrapbook blog. It has been designed this way because our children grow so quickly, and we just want to be able to chronicle their changes. I am not a writer, so you will not find any profound writing pieces on this blog; but I do like to take pictures and share them with family and friends.
