Aunt Maggies 100th Birthday Party!!!

Last weekend we went down to Winlock to celebrate my great Aunt Maggies' 100th birthday!! 100!!! Sheesh.. It's hard to even really comprehend if you think about it. She arrived in style in a model T Ford.Here she is with Kira and Ethan.... I told Kira that Aunt Maggie is 10 times her age!

cutting the cake..


Maggie always said that she would live to be 100. She also promised her Pastor that she would dance with him on her 100th!!!

Maggie is my hero! She was like a movie star on her birthday!!!

At Papa's house. Riding the tractor is always a high point!!
lots of apples...lots of everything on the farm!!


Kira befriending the cows! just like her mom. Actually cows are a really good audience.


We also had the opportunity to go to the Cowlitz annual PowWow. I'll try to post a video as well. It was good for the kids to see as they have an unrealistic view of Indians at this point. I told them that their Grandma was 1/2 Indian...they still don't really get it.



Kira and Ethan on the ride home... what a whirlwind of a trip!
