Happy Belated birthday Grandma

This past weekend the kids & I, along with my parents all jumped in the car & made our way to my Grandma's house in Ohio. We wanted to be there to help my Grandma celebrate her 90th birthday on the 27th.

While we were there other family made their way to help in the celebration too. We made our "Wal-Mart" run into town along with getting things ready for the winter. Sunday we decided to get some pumpkins & do some carving. There were 16 of us there & we an event of it. Here are some of our masterpieces. That night after dinner a wind storm went thru & knocked out power for a few hours so we all sat around some candles & told stories of times passed & a few ghost stores were thrown in for good measure.

We had to head home on Monday, but it was worth the trip. It is so much fun being around family & I hope Matt will be able to make the next trip over. Here is a picture of me & a couple of my cousins.
