this is the story of a girl

yesterday, september 13th, was my nana's birthday, and (she's going to kill me for including this but i must) she turned 79. we bought her a big basket of yellow mums and a tiny box of chocolates because she cant resist sweets. my parents decided to celebrate sunday night and!!! we were joined by my aunt mary and uncle frank, who flew in from new mexico :)


mama and pooper
my nana <3
a little bit about my nana.... she is feisty and little and italian :) she likes to pinch (which my papa is usually the victim of), and bake (her peanut butter balls are A-MA-ZING), and occasionally get her gardening on...

nana phyllis, as i refer to her, is my dad's mom, and her family (tartaglia) descends from naples. at the young age of 79, she is 2 books deep into the twilight series and currently has her own facebook account (i'm serious – go friend request her :) how freaking cute is she?

happy birthday nana! we love you! xoxox


p.s.- sorry for saying "freaking"
