St Patricks Day/Grammas birthday celebration

Happy St. Patricks Day!

 

Does anyone realize how difficult it is to take a picture of 7 very active kids?  Believe it or not, this is the best shot! I just wanted to show them all in green....(I did eliminate the ones of Grayson pulling Corbins' hair and the subsequent crying/hitting).

We did have a fun Sunday dinner and the kids were all so good...maybe just knowing that their days together are numbered with the upcoming Taylor move...but regardless, they had fun together. 

 Rarely does a Sunday go by without someone putting on a  costume, and Emma chose the lovely, lavender duck.  Sophie and Gabi adore her!  Later, they were playing some kind of game to guess the future....how many kids they'd each have, where they'd live, how many cars etc.  Meanwhile, the boys were playing "boy games" in the backyard. 

Gramma requested tacos for her birthday meal, which we all enjoyed and Meredith made her favorite chocolate banana cream pie for dessert.  I think her 93rd was a success!  She loved her gifts- a beauty salon certificate from Curt and Amie's family, new Skeecher shoes from the Frost family, a gorgeous purse and earrings from the Taylors, and some new shirts from Brad and Sue.
These are the first pair of athletic shoes for her!  We commented about how stylish she looked in her new hoodie and shoes!
