Happy 97th Birthday Great Great Grandma Lowry

We spent the day up in Idaho to help Great Grandma Lowry celebrate her 97th birthday.  A bunch of the family met up at the nursing home and surprised her with a little lunch, cake, presents and well wishes.  She looked great and was talking up a storm. 

It was great seeing her and being able to get some pictures with her.  We got a good one of her hand, Grandpa's, Peggy's, Mike's and all the kids.  Thanks for the idea Megan! 


The funniest part was when Wes presented her with a big present.  Inside there were tons of wire hangers.  She had a good laugh.  Everyone should expect to be getting some crocheted hangers in the near future.  What a good time we had.  I think it is so cool that my kids get to know their Great Great Grandma.  I never was able to know any of my Great Great Grandparents.  I think Grandma is an example to us all.  She is such a hard worker and just keeps going.  I love that she is still so spunky, I think she is going to outlive us all!

So fun! I didn't even know you guys went up! So sad to have missed it, but I wasn't up to the drive with 3 kids all by myself... Matt was still out of town. I should've caravanned with you...
DARN!
