Hi Chris Glad you and your family are having a nice day and enjoyed visiting your grandma. So happy she is having a wonderful happy birthday.Her cake flowers gifts and goodies all look great. I'm sure she will enjoy them all.It's wonderful that you have been shopping a lot and having new adventures.So good for you to do new things. Just because you haven't been to a store before doesn't mean it's any different then dollar tree or Walmart. Soon it will be natural like all your other weekly adventures. Happy to hear Jenn Carter and family are all doing well.Thanks for all my nice hugs today Have a good night Hugs to everyone-Stephanie
Hello Chris and holly Happy Birthday wishes for your grandma. 90 years wise!! Man she sounds like a wonderful person. And to meet Holly for the first time! Proud of you Chris! Going into the Goodwill store was not easy for you to do. You did it! Woot. ❤️Blessings greenies
Hello Chris, Holly, and family, thank you for including DS in your Grandma’s birthday. Her gifts are nice and I love her new purple vase. 90 years? She’s only 9 decades old and I’m sure she has many great memories with her family!
You’ve done good going on more adventures. I know how tough even leaving home can be. But I hear the more we go out the more we want to :)
A lovely birthday gathering for Grandma :) Such beautiful flowers too!
Glad you got out to lots of places this week, but it’s good to recognise our limits and push boundaries slowly.
I mailed you a birthday package and a postcard so hopefully you’ll receive them soon.
Love to all of you xx
Birthday wishes for your Grandma 90 years young! Glad your family had a wonderful day! Cake, gifts & flowers are beautiful. Thanks for sharing this special day! Hugs! Brooke
