05.27.2012: Papa's 80th Bday Luncheon

 
On Sunday, we went over to Gramma & Papa's house to have a birthday luncheon for Papa's birthday!  I had gone over really early to do the morning shift and hang out with them while everyone else was still sleeping...then Brent came over a little later in the day to work on the back gate.  And basically just replaced/rebuilt the whole thing (which of course drove Papa crazy as to why you would just replace/rebuild a perfectly good gate..even though it was really falling apart!).  While he was doing that, I ran home & showered and packed to go out to Newport later in the afternoon. 
 
Anyways, when we got back to Gramma & Papa's, Gramma was out in the front raking up leaves....and Papa was in the back admiring his new gate.  Drake volunteered to paint it :)  So, while Drake worked on the paint (did a great job by the way!), the rest of the group visited and set up for lunch & cake.  I just took pics!!  The kids had all made Papa really cute garden stepping stones for his garden.  Drake put his handprint on his, as well as some stones.  Brianna covered hers in crystals, and Andrew did a combination of both!  We had a great little 80th birthday lunch with Gramma & Papa and I am sure they enjoyed our little visit....then they were ready for us to leave so they could nap!
