A few weekends ago, we celebrated Great-Grandpa's 89th Birthday!
Papa John suffered a stroke last year and has been in a convalescent home since then. A few weeks before his birthday, he mentioned to my mom he wanted to have a party with cake and presents!
So my mom naturally decided to throw a party for him, right in the front of the convalescent home! haha
All of the family and some friends gathered for some great pasta and yummy cake. We played his favorite salsa songs. Papa was able to talk about the days he used to dance Salsa with Nana.
I tried all afternoon to get Bella to say "Papa" as I practiced with her all that morning and of course she did not want to say it.... until she was not shy anymore. Papa was so excited to hear her say his name in her cute little voice!
Papa topped his fun day off when he finally opened his presents! He was shocked that he got clothes and cologne and his favorite... chocolate candy!
It was a really beautiful day... I cherish the photos I was able to take of Isabella with her Papa.
