Celebrating Anna

My sweet niece, Anna Jean, turned 7 on Sunday.  We were looking forward to the trip to Orleans for weeks and it did not disappoint.

Nathan was busy with the planting season and Jentry did not have school on Friday, so I took the kids west on Thursday to enjoy an extra day there.

Mason got to haul some silage with papa. A boy, his papa and a "big truck". Doesn't get much better than that!


The Hamilton's had 50 new chickies to chase and hold.


The big kids surprised us all with a new restaurant called "The Big B". It is a hidden little gem in the basement of grandma's house. You wouldn't be able to find it unless you were told by one of the locals.




They were smart to bring grandma in our their scheme as their mothers would have put a kibosh to the idea of hauling all the food downstairs. Of course grandma said sure, why not? The kiddos had so much fun. The food was wonderful and the service was entertaining. Mason was a little disappointed that chicken and french fries were not on the menu but he survived. The big kids even went to the lengths of washing all the dishes when we were finished. By the time they got to eat themselves they were starving. 


Apparently, it was a one time deal but the memories will no doubt carry on for years to come.

Saturday evening we celebrated Anna Jean. She has grown into such a lovely little lady and it was fun to see her in the spotlight. She selected a menu of hot dogs, baked beans, chips and chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. She is definitely a girl after her Aunt JJ's heart. This is my kind of meal!


Apologies for the tiny blonde photobomer.





Thanks for letting us celebrate your special day. We love you Anna Jean! Wishing you many many more.
