Happy 85th Birthday Grandma!

Mike and I headed down to good ole' Tyler, MN (google it people) to visit and celebrate my Grandma's 85th birthday this past weekend.
The weather was frickin' AWESOME. Thank God because the last time we went down there, it rained like crazy. Well the wind is always wiping because it is "the wind capital of the midwest".
We had a few of the close relatives over to here house for lunch, cake, beer and sitting outside watching the Harley bikers ride by. We all had a nice time. We ate way too much food, as we all do when we get together with anybody.
I took Mike around Lake Benton (again, google it) to show him where my grandparent's farm was, the lake, the old hotel...things like that. Then we did the traditional cemetary drive by to pay our respects to the relatives.
I love my Grandma. She is one crazy lady, but in a good way. She has always been a pillar of strength, truth, loyalty, faith and love. She is hardworker who is dedicated to her community, family and friends. She had quite the personality, always kidding around, making fun of herself, "cutting a rug" as one might say.
Anywho....we had a great weekend.
