Today I took my grandmother to the 101st birthday party for her lifelong friend, Lois Crook Taylor. Mrs. Taylor's children and grand-children have hosted a party for her at Wagon Wheel RV Resort, which they own/operate on the Little Red River. Mam-ma Polly is always an honored guest. Today was no exception, as nearly 100 people gathered to celebrate this grand lady. Mrs. Lois looked great, and Mam-ma was dolled up and looking better than she has in weeks! She was so excited about this birthday party.
People marveled that Mam-ma will be 98 in November. Mrs. Lois' brother, Grimm Magness (I hope I spelled his name correctly), came from Oklahoma... he will be 90 soon. He is the man posing in some of the photos with Mam-ma Polly. A delicious buffet meal was served, including fresh fruits, grilled pork loin and fried chicken... and two kinds of cake!
When we left, the family was already talking with Mrs. Lois about her 102nd birthday party. Somehow, I think she might just make it!
