My beautiful and tough-cookie Grandma Dorothy turned 81 this month and my sisters and our families surprised her with a little party. She had a rough January...she had a bad fall and broke her arm and had to have a pin and screws put in her shoulder. Youch. See what I mean? Tough cookie.


She blew out the candles so fast, I made her "pose" again so I could get the shot!

The great grandkids made her a special "scroll" with loving words and sketches.

Esias spent most of the time doing this...playing with the double-sided laundry shoot!
