The sweetest lady I know, turned 80 on Wednesday, March 2nd. We celebrated her birthday with the whole family on the Saturday before. It was so much fun to get everyone together and to celebrate such a special person. We watched videos of when our parents were growing up and it was so much fun to see!!! We had cake, opened presents, and just celebrated being together!
All the Grandchildren (Minus Douglas) and Great Grandchildren!

Blowing out her candles
The decorations were great!!!Update: Marilyn had e-mailed all of us to tell everyone we knew (that knew Mamaw) to send her a card in the mail so she could get 80 cards!! I just got an email this morning that said she got over 90 cards!!! You know that is one loved lady!!!!
Also, I called her yesterday (her acutal birthday, which is also Texas Independence Day, and my father in law's birthday!!!) and she said she was sitting by the phone waiting for the birthday calls!! I called her around 10 and she said she had many before me, and I'm sure she had a ton the rest of the day!!! She said how each one brightened her day and the cards did too!!! I hope we will get to celebrate many more birthdays with her!
We love you Mamaw!!!
