Grand daughter Shelby celebrated her 9th birthday today. This is the second time she's had a birthday while on vacation in Destin, Florida (the first time she turned 6). She's been looking forward to this day for a whole year. She had fun playing in the Gulf waters and in the sand, shopping, swimming in the pool, eating a delicious birthday spaghetti dinner (with great-granddad's awesome spaghetti sauce recipe), blowing out nine candles on her yummy cake, opening cool presents, then a night swim in the pool and walking on the beach. She should sleep well tonight! Happy Birthday, Shelby!! You're the best grand daughter a granny ever had! I love you!!
