Happy Birthday Grandmother!


On this day in 1927, a beautiful lady named Lilly Helen Fortune was born, or as I refer to her as simply Grandmother.

A few fun facts about this lady:

 She's on Facebook: And puts 20-year-olds to shame on how regularly she uses it.
She raised three boys. And never seemed to have a chipped nail or a hair out of place while doing it.

She's a tap dancer. And darn good at it!

She's got a crazy green thumb. You've got to see this woman's yard to believe it.

And lastly, I'm ashamed to admit, even I have trouble keeping up with her! Off to Grandmother's house I go to celebrate her 84th birthday, have a great day everyone!
