Only a Grandma would notice
that a certain little girl
had a birthday
that was never celebrated in blogland
and documented as a part of our permanent history.
Heaven Forbid!!
Camille celebrated her 9th birthday whileGrandpa was in the hospital,
so we had a quiet party at home.
Her best gift was some yummy new fabricthat will be quilted into a bedspread
for her new ORANGE room!
(its her fav.or.ite! color)
Quite a haul for a little girl,
wouldn't you say...
After we opened gifts we headed over to the hospitalwhere Aunt Linda and I visited with Dad
while Mom took a little break
and went to Leatherby's to celebrate
our little girl's birthday
with this yummy treat...
Ooh, la,
la!!
About a week later
we had a family party for Camille and Rachel
over at Grandma's house...
with a REAL store-bought cake.(Wow! That never would have happened
when I was a kid!)
Afterwards she opened lots of fun giftsfrom Grandparents
and Aunts & Uncles & such.
Of course the great thing about birthdays
is that the birthday girl
has all these new toys to play with.
So, she's busy playing with all her new toys,
RIGHT?
WRONG!!!
She's too busy with MY scissors and MY tape
(that I can NEVER find)
crafting this miniature playground
for her little pets -
Isn't that the way it always goes??P.S. Steve - if you're reading this, I want you to appreciate that you aren't the only Stephens grandchild with a fascination for tape and paper! Shame on Papoo for yelling at you all those years... it's in the genes!!!

You know, I was reading and thought... I am going to make a long comment on tape and "messes" but when I got to the end I laughed so hard! Sure miss Papoo!
We sure love you guys!
Happy Birthday Camille!
