92



Happy 92nd birthday to my beautiful Grandmother, Marjorie!
We hosted a wonderful brunch in her honor today ~ the most important item on the menu being angel food cake iced with whipping cream (thanks to our little baker, Paige).  We served it with homemade raspberry sauce (Grandma's favourite!). 

Good food shared with family all together... such a gift for us all.


I love you, Grams!

    Happy birthday from Australia Marjorie! You have six years on my Mum, she's a 1926 model.

    Sherri, don't you look like your grandma!

    Wow, your gram looks wonderful for 92! It was the first thing I noticed. I don't think she looks over 60! What a great life. I bet she is an active person.

    Thanks, all! Yes, Grams was always VERY active and she ate well. She walked to work and back each day until retirement (2 miles each way), then after 65, she walked with friends and went to the community centre to exercise in the pool :) She was on her own in an apartment until 4 years ago, but now needs extra support due to dementia. She LOVES her new place, and she LOVES the staff. They are very good to her - they love her like family! She is only 10 minutes from me, so I can swing in and see her all the time :)

    Your grandmother looks fabulous! My mom is 3 years younger than her. She still does her own housework, cooking and managing her monies. These women are inspiring!
