Happy Birthday Aunt Rose "80"

My husbands Aunt Rose turned 80.
They had a "surprise" birthday lunch for her.
She doesn't like attention or surprises and she
was completely shocked.
But she was a good sport and it was a lovely afternoon.

Here are the invitations we received.

This is little Taylor, Aunt Rose's grandson
He is precious. He is only 3 and so, so smart.

Then they realized they forgot to include the directions
to the restaurant. So we got a follow up invite like this: hah

The party was at Buon Amici Restaurant in White Plains NY

WOW was the food ever good!
Italian food and so much of it.

Here is Aunt Rose arriving.
Even though it is blurry,
you can see she was shocked.

Here she is with Taylor
He loves his Grand mom

This is Steven, Gary's cousin and Taylor's Dad.
Aunt Rose is his Mom.

Here is Taylor teasing me trying to get a photo.
Squinting his eyes hah
He has the most beautiful blue eyes too.
