Grandma Ann turned 90 yesterday. I will post some pictures, but take me at my word...grandma is AWESOME. She looks wonderful. At 90 years old she never took a nap yesterday while I took two. The woman has raised or helped raise 6 children and their spouses, 20 grandchildren and 13 of their spouses, 30 great grandchildren and 2 spouses, and 3-4 great great great grandchildren (I have a little trouble keeping track that far down the line). She is a role model to all 80 something of us, and we are so proud of her!
21 of us showed up to help her celebrate in Winter Haven, FL where she still lives by herself in the winter time. It was a terrific weekend, and it was wonderful to see some family members that I hadn't seen in years. It is a large family, and I have to be honest, I didn't know how to handle them when I was younger. It was an intimidating environment for me. But as I grow older, I am starting to appreciate the advantages of our large, loud, electic, wonderful family. I had a great weekend and it was hard to leave everyone (especially to come back to the 40 degree Ohio weather).
