Some photos from the superfun little visit to see my amazing gramps for his 90th birthday. At lunch on Tuesday, there were 4 generations of our family all together to celebrate him (including my grandma, who’s been married to him for 68 years) and it was a pretty great thing to be a part of, especially getting to spend time with both of my cousins’ kids for the journey. My cousin’s cake was also pretty great… it was Meyer lemon with raspberry filling and Swiss meringue buttercream icing, and it featured an edible white chocolate frame with a photo of the little Navion my gramps used to love to fly, and a whole bunch of words describing everything he is to us. Bittersweet without my mom (who would have been 67 tomorrow) and my cousin’s dad (who died in ‘91), but my aunt was there, as well as my pops and his wife who love them like family anyway.
