Capturing Life and Chasing Zen

grandma's 90th - part 1

My grandma recently turned 90 years old. Yep, you read that right...90. We had a great time celebrating her birthday.

I loved how my step-mom decorated with my grandma's love for sports in mind.

 

The cake...

 

My Dad, step-brother & brother-in-law made grillades & jambalaya. It was all so delicious.

 
 
 

Nobody makes a jambalaya like my Daddy. Nope...nobody.

 

There was  a very nice turn-out for the party.

 

Here's the birthday girl blowing out the candles.

 

And here's a picture of MawMaw, her brother & the parish priest.

Just a little FYI...if you're a priest & you attend a 90 year old's birthday party, you're pretty much a rock-star.  Yes, this sounds ridiculous...and yes, it's true. 

Ladybug Cookies

Cy came home with a precious tea party recipe book and wanted to make some of the creations she found. This was our first attempt. How cute are these ladybug cookies?!?

 

And they were yummy, too.  :)
