Michael's Aunt has formed this really fun book club for my sister in laws and the cousins. Every month she assigns a book for us to read and then has the most amazing activity/party to go with it. This particular month was special. Michael's Grandmother named Frankie passed away a few years ago. I never knew her very well since by the time I met her she had severe alzheimer's. We read one of her favorite books called "On growing up tough" and Aunt Shelly planned an amazing weekend getaway for all us girls and did all of Grandma Frankie's favorite things to celebrate her birthday. We went to the ballet, dinner, and stayed at the Little America hotel. We got the cutest gift baskets with all of Frankie's favorite things from pearl necklaces to adorable book marks. Frankie was a very loving and easy going person. She also got us these shirts that say "Frankie says relax" because thats what she used to say to everyone. It was an incredible weekend.
