Actually she turned 80 on November 2nd but we went to her party on November 13th in Monroe.
Look at that spunky Great Grandma
Grandpa Verle-reserved, and calm. These two are the Grandparents I never had. My Grandma (Baba in Ukrainian) died when I was 11 and I was very close to her but I never knew either of my Grandpas and my moms mom lived in Arizona and I wasn't close to her. So Grandma Connie and Grandpa Verle are just what I was missing for all these years.The whole clan (minus 4)
The Parsons clan-completely up to date even with new born baby Chole (I hope I spelled that right).
I tried a new hairdo idea for Allie and it turned out so cute and curly. This is in the car. I asked her to smile. She opened her mouth.
A bit of a better look at the hair. We got to the party and Allie went into "I'm shy, I will not cooperate mode." I love it when she does that.
Posing with cousin Rylee.
I love this series of pictures. I had to include them all. I was trying to get a group picture. I love the crazy faces. Perfectly captures these little personalities.
One of the best parts of the party-the every famous Frappe and the most delicious cake. We all ate heartily on both.
We love you Grandma Connie. We hope for many more birthdays.
