This last weekend my Grandpa Haney turned 90 years old! So the whole Haney clan gathered together to celebrate. All of my aunts and uncles were there and I think 20 of the 26 grandkids were there with their families-it was crazy! We got there Friday morning just in time to head to Hagerman to go rafting. Grandpa even floated the river with us-if I can go rafting at 90 I’ll be feeling pretty good. That night my grandparents and all their kids went out to the “grown-up” dinner and all the cousins and their families went out to Laura’s for dinner and games. It was so much fun to see and catch up with my cousins, some I hadn’t seen in years! Saturday we had lunch at Grandma’s and then went into town for a big birthday party for Grandpa. It was amazing to see all the people that came out to support him and wish him a happy birthday. He has built quite the legacy. Because of him over 50 people are active in the church and that’s just counting his family-not the countless people he has affected from his 4 missions. Saying that he is an amazing man just doesn’t do him justice. He is one in a million and a tiger everyday of his life. We love you grandpa!
After the party we headed back to grandma’s for dinner and lawn games. I remember the last time we all got together and I was one of the little ones then. This time I brought a husband and a baby with me! I am so thankful for my big crazy family and hope that it doesn’t take us that long to get together again!
