Happy Birthday Christon

Happy 26 Birthday Christon!
Her birthday is April 25.
They are going to be out of town
on her birthday so we had her
birthday dinner after church
last Sunday.
Christon is the mother of my
two precious GRAND~girls!
I'm really sorry that neither
look like her. Shelby looks
and acts just like her daddy,
Harrison and Reagan looks like
Christon's mother and sister.
One thing about having children
is that you never have to blow out
your birthday candles again!

And you always have help
opening your presents!

Easter Sunday April 12, Grandma Griffis Birthday
Even when you are a great~grandma
and you turn 78 years old
and your DIL (moi) only has
candles that say you are 55,
you still get help blowing
out your candles.
(no candles are safe around here)

And when every one goes home
this is what you find on your
bench in the living room!
I just love it and couldn't
resist taking this picture.

Happy Birthday Chrison.

I love the wrapping paper too. Not to be so worldly, but so pretty. Everything looks great. Love the shoes.

What great pictures Gigi. Even when your kiddos are teenagers, you still have help blowing out candles and opening presents!

The shoes are too precious, I know you wanted them to stay there! I love the "55" for your MIL's cake!

I hope when I'm 70-something my DIL puts 55 on my cake instead of puts me in the nursing home....

Cute pictures. I love the shoes, what treasures.

MY daughters birthday an my MOM's birthday are on April 25th. I love the shoes. Do you have this problem ---every time my kids (with their kids) come over to visit they FORGET a ton of things and I gather them up, find them for days. they call "did I leave me????? - yes you did"
I always say CHECK the house for stuff you might have forgot before they go home ---they never do.
shheeeeesh

Oh I love birthdays!! Happy Birthday Christon!!
It's always fun to meet new blog friends. I do take all my kids photos and I use a Canon EOS XSI. for my shots 0f 1-4 people I used a 50 mm fixed lens. You get more clarity with that lens, but you also get a good work out becuase you become the human zoom.
