A Gazillion Pictures from Miriam's Birthday Gathering

Harriet Frances with her namesake, Great-Grandma Frances.
Miriam doesn't like sweets. Isn't that weird?!! Her favorite food is strawberries with cream. This year she asked for angel food cake so she could have strawberries and cream. I think she even ate a little cake. A very little cake. :)
This is on the deck at Great-grandma Young's house in Ogden.









Great-grandma was bringing out Miriam's present and Cowen didn't want Miriam to peek.
Best pic of the night. Great-grandma was reading stories to the kids. She's hilarious. She used to teach elementary school and then she volunteered at a local elementary school for years. She knows how to read with expression.








We had a lovely time. I recorded some of Great-grandma reading Olivia to the kids. A memory to treasure.

The only glitch was that I forgot Miriam's presents at home. Oops. Miriam was a good sport about it though.
