Is this not the cutest birthday girl you've ever seen?



Fannie Mae's entire family gathered for her 90th birthday in April, and boy were they fun!


Fannie Mae (known to her family as Papa Mae) began with her own three children, who added nine grandchildren, who (so far) have contributed seven great-grandchildren. Uniquely wonderful, each and every one of them.



The fun thing about shooting extended families is seeing that some things never change, like the way siblings behave together ...



... while other things do change, like long-married couples who once were newlyweds themselves, and teens/young adults who will one day find themselves bouncing little ones on their laps.




What a joyous occasion, Fannie Mae, and what a full 90 years you've been given!


After looking at the way things are on this earth,

here's what I've decided is the best way to live:

Take care of yourself, have a good time,

and make the most of whatever job you have for as long as God gives you life.

Yes, we should make the most of what God gives,

both the bounty and the capacity to enjoy it,

accepting what's given and delighting in the work.

It's God's gift!

God deals out joy in the present, the now.

Ecclesiastes 5:18 MESSAGE
