Today is my grandmother's 80th birthday! In honor of her birthday, all of us had dinner last night at Tokyo. It was delicious! I called Big Mama at 7:00am this morning and her phone was busy....I wasn't the first one to call! I came in THIRD this year. That's pitiful. For being 80 years old, Big Mama is very well! She still volunteers at the hospital weekly, eats lunch with Brad and I every Sunday after church, quilts and still manages to make it to WalMart almost every day! She is my favorite person on this earth! Anyway, here are some pictures from last night:
My favorite neice!

Reece already loves credit cards!
Big Mama was so embarrassed when they sang Happy Birthday to her!

And while today is a happy day, it's also a sad one. Today would have been Carolyn Chandler's 22nd birthday. She worked with April and I at the office and was killed last year by a drunk driver. Actually, Monday the 13th will be the one year anniversary of the day she was killed. April and I are down in the dumps about that, so Monday will be worse of a day for us. Just goes to show you never know when you're gonna go!
On a family update, Brad has probably found a job! It isn't what we were initially thinking, but it just so happens that it's exactly what Brad wanted! He and Dad are looking into going into a partnership and opening up a Subway! It's still very much in the beginning-research stages, but we consider it an answered prayer!
And on another side note, did anyone watch Making the Band last night?!?! Aubrey out of the group? What?!??!? I can't wait for the season finale next week!
