Hoisington!

All of my dad's side of the family gathered in Hoisington, KS to celebrate my grandma's 80th birthday!! We were ALL there... at the same time... that doesn't happen very often. We have a tradition of taking an entire family picture with everyone in it... every year. We have continued this tradition, but the last few years, it has not been possible to get everyone together. The picture would have certain people missing. We finally got an entire family picture this year! I don't have that one to post right now, but here is one of all of the cousins (and cousin's kids and spouses). We are somewhat in order from oldest to youngest. That is yet another tradition!

The Mawhiney's (and Malones, and Klingenbergs)

(and with Dad's eyes closed) :)

Party time for Grandma! Grant and I were sad that we couldn't be there for the actual party on Dec. 26th as we had some fabulous weddings to attend! We did get there on Sunday morning though.

Grandma looking at her scrapbook that we all contributed pictures and letters to. My fabulous mother put it all together beautifully!

Happy Birthday again, Grandma! We love you!

(thank you Sarah for the pictures!)
