Some of us ask do I have to have a birthday and get older? Can't it just be our special day and call it good? That is what I wish as I am getting closer to 40, ouch!
Gramers has had a birthday and we were HAPPY to share her special day with her! February 19 we got to make the birthday call and sing our lovely "Happy Birthday" song.
Gramers is who tries super hard to hold the Morris family together. She plans monthly parties, dinner get-togethers, girls luncheons and wonderful FHE's.
We are lucky to live close to her. It takes us about 6 minutes to get to their house. The kids love to go there because they always have fun toys to play with, cousins over to play with, plan fun activities and yummy desserts after FHE.
Every summer Gramers, Papa and Nana spend the summer in the White Mountains. We try and stay 5-7 days there with them. Gramers is an amazing camping cook! She always brings games to play, watches the kids play in the river, takes walks with us and makes camping fun!
Over Thanksgiving weekend Erik, Conner and Lindsey went up with Gramers and Papa to cut down a Christmas tree (one of their many traditions). They had a blast!
On Gramers birthday we ladies (Liesl was sick and not there) went out for dinner at Matta's! Gramers ordered a cheese crisp and water. She is very simple and easy going that's what makes hanging out with her fun. She doesn't stress out very easily. Happy Birthday...we love you lots!

Happy Birthday Susan! Miss seeing you and John at church! I think it is so neat you have such fun family traditions on both sides of your families. I love hearing about all the fun things you guys do!
Oh man, I LOVE Matta's. And - it's a rude awakening, isn't it? We're ALL getting closer to 40 - yikes. Looks like fun though - I have an awesome grandma like that. So sweet and fun.
What a sweet post! Susan looks so great!!
And I'm SO happy to hear the Matta's is still open. There was a dirty rumor that it had closed down. Spencer and I had a day of mourning. Glad it was just a rumor!! Miss you guys! And Yes - I'm so in for the 20 year anniversary get-away!!
