Milestone
















Grandpa Larson celebrated a big milestone this last weekend. On November 1st, he turned 80 years old. We all headed to Grand Junction, Colorado for the weekend to help him celebrate. His wife, Virginia, had planned a party for him that had been in the works for several months. It was originally supposed to be a surprise party, but somewhere along the way, he found out. Virginia put Kris in charge of a slide show, which he was able to put together using pictures from all the families. Put to music, it turned out pretty good. They reserved the LDS church for the party on Saturday night, and family members, ward members, and friends turned up for his party. Most family traveled from Utah, and some from Las Vegas. The kids all had fun hanging out with cousins and helping Grandpa celebrate. Tyler kept reminding Grandpa that he was 80 years old, and kept asking me how old he was before that! He was pretty proud of Grandpa, as we all are! Happy Birthday Grandpa!

Looks like a good time. Don't tell Tyler how old I am - I don't need any reminders (Chad already has it covered).
