My Grandma Jean has the most wonderful talent of making each person feel infinitely special. When I was little, my very favorite thing was a sleepover at Grandma's. I'd sleep in her frilly guest room (in a perfectly-made, queen-size bed) after she brushed my hair and read me a story. When I woke up I would play quietly in the room or, sometimes, venture into Grandpa's office and find his little magnet toys. I loved those things.
After Grandpa was up and getting ready for the day, I'd climb in bed with Grandma and we'd talk until she got up to make breakfast - the most delicious scrambled eggs and toast you've ever had. She cut the toast into triangles and put the plates in the oven to warm them up before we ate.
Then I watched Grandma as she did her hair and makeup, and put on her huge jewelry, before we went out.I think my love of beautiful things comes from this beautiful lady.
So anyway, all the family was invited for this surprise party, along with old friends of hers in Salt Lake that hadn't seen Grandma Jean in years. We decorated and partied Grandma-style, complete with 75 roses and a musical program. Lana pulled it off beautifully!
I want to post the video of her walking in the room on the Eddington blog. We'll see if it works.
