^^ these pics were taken last saturday at my mama's 50th birthday celebration!  we thought it would just be our grandparents and us, but when we got to the restaurant, mom's whole side was there!  all four of her siblings & their  spouses, all dressed up with gifts in their hands!  so neat!  i'm so glad they did that for her! ^^

i guess that's it for now!
​so thankful.  truly.
