    Happy Birthday, Grandma!

    Published: Mar 14, 2015 · Updated: Mar 14, 2015 by Kevin Williams | 7 Comments

    By Kevin Williams

    I've written about my dear grandmother in this space plenty of times over the years.  And many of you have gotten to know her through my "Amish meets Italian" videos.  Well, last weekend, she celebrated her ninetieth birthday! She's been on the mend from a bout of pneumonia but appears to have fought it off and was well enough to celebrate the big day.

    She's broken every health rule along the way and still made it to 90.  That's a testament to good genes!   He is the special lady (with Aster out in front, sampling her fingers for some reason)

      Happy Birthday Grandmother. She looks great Keven. Hope she has many more birthdays.
      Aster is adorable as usual. Looks as though she is licking off her finger, or just trying to figure out what kind of mischief she can get into.

      Happy Birthday to your Grandmother. She looks like a hugging grandmother. You just want to put your arms around her and give her a big hug. Hope she enjoys many more birthdays.
