What's a five hour drive to celebrate 90 years?
A few weeks ago, actually, nearly a month ago, it was Nanny's (my paternal grandmother) 90th birthday. The Northern Miles were on our way back from a mission of mercy to New Jersey & we were able to stop by to wish Nanny a happy birthday and make a few faces at the camera that Aunt Mary was carrying around w/her.
This is what Choddie looked like when he heard he had to share w/his old dad the batch of forgotten cookies that Nanny had baked (or, er, forgotten....).
Thompson's response was no less refined. These faces aside, we had a nice time before making the grueling five hour drive back to the frozen tundra of Western New York. Thompson was very happy that I remembered how to get home, Choddie was very happy to see the dog & I think cousin Lucy is still amazed that we came all the way from Rochester to go to Nanny's birthday party.
