Nanny McNulty's 95th Birthday

We had an absolutely wonderful celebration of Nanny's 95th birthday on October 10th. By day, we had an open house at Lily Lake Pavillion, where she was delighted to see about 200 friends and family. That evening, we had our close family (minus the youngest generation) back to the same location for a Thanksgiving dinner. Even with the great-grandchildren and a couple spouses missing, we were still almost 30 people around the table. What a great celebration!

The boys had great visit with her on her actual birthday too - October 15th. We recapped the party and heard all about the visits, calls, and cards she received. Oh, to be 95 and still kicking butt at Scrabble!

We should have oodles of photos to share soon from our extended family (there is talk of a big Flickr stream or something) but until then, here's one stolen from Uncle John's Facebook.

And here is our wonderful Nanny McNulty at her party(stolen from Joanie's Facebook). She really had an amazing day, and we were so happy to be able to share it with her.
