Grandma's birthday was on the 23rd of December, but the party was on Saturday the 22nd. Grandma told the story of her father at Christmas giving an orange to each of his children and every other child that lived in Eagle Valley an orange as well. It was the only time of year that any of them would even see an orange, let alone eat one. So it was a really special treat for everyone. Grandma in return gave each of her grandchildren, great grandchildren, and even great great grandchildren an orange and a dollar at her birthday party.Songs were sung, stories were told, and hugs were shared. It was a very good party.
The wreath on grandma's head was sent by Lorell and Terry from the Marshall Islands.

she is so cute!! Carlaya saw the picture of her and ANdrew and said "i don't like that kind of grandma, just change it mom". It seems mean, but she is seriously scared of old people. The older the scarier. I try to explain that they are just getting older, but she just sees them as monsters. LOL Anyway, so cute she gives them an orange and a $1. That could get expensive with the "bleaks"
