My birthday dinner

It has been so long since my last post! Sorry about that...I've just been so busy. Yesterday was my birthday and I had to work. My daughter and her family decided to have a birthday dinner for me after I got off. Lauren, my beautiful step-granddaughter cooked for me. She is only 16 years old and that girl knows she can cook! Lets get this party started!

First she started it off with a delicious salad.

She cooked shrimp fettachini from scratch. It was awesome. I ate way too much...had to start my diet all over again today.


This is me and my grandson, Jason. He was giving me my birthday present.



It's hard to believe that he is almost 2 years old.




Giving me a birthday kiss! He is the sweetest little thing!





And a big birthday hug. Priceless!






They bought me a plaque for my garden and a pretty necklace and earring set...pink with roses of course. I love it.







I was finally able to give Jason his Easter basket. I've been working ever since Easter and I was out of town for Easter visiting my son and his family. I will have to post about that soon.








He loved his bunny rabbit basket.









My birthday cake. Isn't it pretty? They just had to get me those candles! lol










I've really been blessed in my life. I was sitting here thinking of a wish before blowing out my candles.











This picture is so funny to me! I was serious about getting those candles to go out! lol Garrett looked thrilled too!












Me and Jason. He was waiting patiently for his piece of cake.













Yummy! So delicious!














Me and Stevie. Showing off my candles...















Me and my sweet daughter, Christina. She brightens my day every single day.
















Christy, me and Garrett. I love my babies.

















I love being a 'Nana' too. Nothing better!


















Thank y'all for making my birthday such a special one. I love y'all and I love you too Cole. I will see you soon!
