Danica's Sweet 16th happened yesterday. As usual, I made a card: first the outside and then the inside.
Wednesday is dad's day with the kids, so we all celebrated on Tuesday. Shauna used the van from work, to drive 6 of us to Mandarin restaurant in Ottawa: an all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet that Danica quite adores. The sixth person was Dani's boyfriend.

Those are great photos of you and the family. Sue looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! I love your card, and the pictures tell a wonderful story. :-)
ReplyDeleteSuper event for all of you, with photos to remember it by. Sue is a model, yes? That restaurant does a good job of presentation!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. Happy belated wishes to Danica.
ReplyDeleteYou're so right about your comment on my Wisdom blog yesterday. There are a few things that worked out for me, that in the long run, weren't for me really. Life!
Your family is so loving. It is a nice thing to see.
ReplyDeleteOh no, say it isn't so! Hard to believe that your lovely granddaughter, Danica, is now 16, as it seems like just recently that you were posting the photos of her in childhood, AC. Thanks for sharing the family photos of this special milestone. You and Sue are young-looking grandparents (aren't we all?) and indeed Sue had a "spiffy" outfit. Happy🎂 Birthday wishes sent to the birthday celebrant🎉
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to her!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Danica.
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't anyone else dress up for the occasion?
@Marcia: I was a bit surprised about the clothes. Apparently, it's a different era.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like it was a grand day for the birthday girl. Wouldn't you love to be 16 again? Maybe not these days with all the social media pressures.
ReplyDeleteHappy 16th to Danica! What a lovely family outing and Sue looks elegant as usual. She has such a great dress sense. (I do not)
ReplyDeleteSue's the only person dressed up! Happy birthday, Sixteen!
ReplyDeleteYou have a great family and you look happy in the family photos. Great idea to make a card so elegantly like what you did
ReplyDeleteGreat lookin party!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful family! That's a long buffet. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDelete@Boud: Hey there! I wasn't wearing a suit, but was wearing decent threads. 😎
ReplyDelete16 is a great birthday to celebrate and your family had a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteSuch a nice birthday party. Happy 16th, Danica!
ReplyDeleteHappy 16th to your young woman!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Danica. Looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteThis is what HAPPINESS looks like :-) Beautiful photos... a pleasure to see. Thanks very much.
ReplyDeleteAll the best to the birthday girl Danica... and to all of you.
Hug of Viola
Hooray for birthdays!
ReplyDeleteSuch fun.
You and Sue have the most beautiful family! What a special occasion.
ReplyDeleteSue's eye is so much improved! She is her usual amazingly gorgeous self. And so is the grandkid. What a sweetie.
ReplyDeleteDid I mention that the grandson is looking more like you every day, lucky kid.
Love the celebration. You are a fine, fine grandfather.
