~Happy Birthday Grady~

Grandma Bonnie wanted to take the older girls to a fun concert in Seattle called 'Ten Grands', a marvelous production which included 10 baby grand pianos! The date of the performance happened to fall on Grady's birthday. So Grady, Ashley and Amanda headed up to the great Mecca of Seattle, where Grady had spent his childhood. They had a wonderful day of visiting Grady's grandma Alma, wandering around Seattle, and eating at the fabulous Benihana- a Japanese restaurant that specializes in preparing the yummy fair right there at the table! The girls told me that they received some very strange looks while wandering around the very 'hip' city of Seattle.. the girls couldn't help gaze upward, mouths agape at the immense skyscrapers, replete with glitz and glitter. Everyone stared.. although most of the stares were quite  polite ones.. think 'Amish Girls Meet the Urban Jungle' Hee Hee! Then it was off to the Benaroya for the dazzling performance.

Oh my goodness. Being here in Belize I had almost forgotten there was a world with skyscrapers, nice big busy roads, and resturaunts with such wonderful food variety. Sounds like an amazing birthday.

Happy birthday brother Grady!
