Happy Birthday Ommy!!

Andy's mom's birthday was on Monday and to celebrate we all headed to Foster's Grill in Fairfax. It was the perfect venue for our gang to gather as we had plenty of space to spread out, and what could be better than burgers and fries!?

We were a few family members short as Heidi, Shawn and Garrett are up in Toronto and John and Drew were at basketball camp, but getting 11 of us together is still a pretty good victory!





Momma Gribbs got some nice gifts as well, including a new camera from Poppa Gribbs (hence the great pictures we got), some home decor from Amy, the "Chess" soundtrack featuring Josh Groban from Bebe, beautiful flowers from Heidi, and a bottle of Kettle One vodka from us. We figure she might need it after grandson number 7 comes along! :)

The folks at the restaurant even brought her some cake and ice cream and we serenaded her with not one, but two rounds of "Happy Birthday to You."



As far as birthday parties go, I'd say this was a pretty successful one--laid back, relaxed, and an opportunity to celebrate Mom, Momma Gribbs, Ommy, M Gribble the First, Momma G, etc. etc :)
