This June was a special month for birthdays in the Gallaher family. We had the youngest Gallaher, Audrey, turning 1-year-old on June 19 and the eldest Gallaher, Thomas Gallaher, turning 90 years-old on June 25. There was a huge celebration thrown for Grandpa in Lebanon, TN and so we of course made the trip to go and celebrate with him! Here are some highlights...

nothing like an ice cream cone after a hard afternoon of swimming!

The next day Audrey had a little mini second birthday party...This time her smash cake was chocolate, with chocolate icing. As you can see, she enjoyed it a little better than her white cake. She cried when we took it away, so we had to give it back to her! :)

Later that afternoon we all went to Grandpa's 90th Birthday celebration...

| One of the few moments this little guy was still...as you can see from his rosy cheeks and wild sweaty hair, he was playing hard! |
 |
| Cousins! |
 |
| Both Audrey and Mason really loved Thatcher... Mason can't get close enough! |

It was a very special day. Travelling with a toddler and a baby can be challenging but it was all more than worth it to witness and be a part of Thomas Gallaher's celebration. He is a great man with a fascinating life story and such a huge part of the Lebanon community. Here is a link to one of the articles written about him:
