Day 16/365: Celebrating a Milestone

Day 16

So grandma is now 88! It's a special birthday for the Japanese because the character for rice consists of the strokes needed to write 88, and rice symbolizes good luck and more importantly good fortune. My grandma is actually a twin and since they both have made it to this point in life, we thought we'd throw them a surprise party :) Both were surprised and happy with being able to be with their families. It was a nice party, except for when my grandma started singing :( it wasn't pretty.
