Grandma's 75th Birthday Party Surprise


Patricia Lou (DeMille) Godfrey, age 16

We hosted my grandma's 75th birthday party at our house and it was a fabulous time.  She and three of her friends traveled over from eastern Washington on Saturday morning and arrived our house around 5 PM.  Meanwhile, the rest of the family arrived around 4 PM and it was a great surprise to her all who were in attendance.  My grandma is very special to me and it made me so happy to have our family and her friends at our house to celebrate this milestone.  She doesn't look 75 nor does she "act" 75, as you would be able to tell by the video clip of her 'gettin jiggy'....so glad I recorded that!!  Of course, thanks in part to the "Bourbon on the Rocks" that Jay kept feeding her all night - my Grandma was loopy and it was HILARIOUS to watch her let loose.  I know everyone had a lot of fun at the party and it was really great to see my grandma so happy and so loved.  Happy Birthday, Grandma....here's to many more!
