Of course after we blew out the candles we had to help her eat the cake. In spite of dietary restrictions, I'm not going to deprive her on her Birthday. Happy 83rd Mom, we love ya.

With a serious health scare earlier in the week (congestive heart failure) we were so happy to present her with a cake. She didn't have the strength to blow out her candles, but we helped her. Go Omi!

Keeping Cassidy busy was not too difficult with this much snow to shovel. Although without the correct footwear and borrowed (bad) gloves, it didn't take him too long to get cold.

Can we start eating yet? Why do we need a picture, lets just eat. They have been waiting for this dinner all day. That would be Christmas Eve, which is traditionally celebrated more than Christmas day in the German tradition, although we did both.

My Mom love the St. Lawrence market and has been shopping there for over 40 years. Due to her advanced age it is difficult for her to ge there anymore and with her beloved Grandson in town she got to go with him. Wonderful time was had by all.
