Happy Birthday Party

Once a year my parents (Ron & Grace Wallace) have a big birthday party celebration for our kids. My dad can grill steak in such a way that it melts in your mouth. The kids helped grandma shuck the corn on the back porch (which reminded us of the corn we were missing in Indy). My sister made her famous 7 layer cake and was able to transport it to my mom's house without it melting and falling apart (it was about 95 degrees F).

Living in Indy has meant that we have had to learn that it's OK to celebrate holidays and special events with family even when they are not on the exact or precise day.
