Peace, Love & GiGi's 90th Birthday Celebration

I'm so excited that I was able to go to Phoenix and celebrate GiGi's 90th birthday with her. It was fun to get to see so many family members and even more fun to see GiGi blow out all those candles :) The party was at a country club and we could look out onto the golf course and the lake from our room in the resturant (Iron Works). It was a wonderful celebration filled with lots of laughter, tons of family, good food and plenty of BINGO!


This is my GiGi and her beautiful cake. Notice the bingo cards that we used to decorate the cake - GiGi is a serious bingo fiend. We played at the Senior Center the day before her birthday and she won $8. I'm not sure she's been in a bingo game that she hasn't won at least one round!

This is GiGi with her two great grandchildren (me & Riley) in the adorable Halloween outfits that she bought us. This was the only picture that had most of us looking at the camera, who knows what I was looking at.

Here is a better picture of me & Riley in our outfits!

This is a picture of the entire family - FRONT ROW: Cherie, Aunt Becky, Joey, Judy, Christin, GiGi, Aunt Linda, Carol, Kenneth & Riley. SECOND ROW: Don, Aunt B, Eric, Aunt Patty, David, Sandy, Michael John, Grandaddy Doc, Michael, Grandma & Amber. BACK ROW: Jonathan, Mommy, Me & Daddy. Told you there was lots of family in town!

From the country club we headed back to Aunt B's house for a nap & then Mass with GiGi. When we got home from Mass we chowed on leftover Mexican and played Oops until everyone was exhausted and headed home to their hotels. Stay tuned for pictures and tales from the last day of our visit to Phoenix.

Peace, love & GiGi's 90th birthday celebration,
Bailey
