The duo has an age difference of 99 years but that did not let them from celebrating together. The adorable girls posed together for pictures on their shared big day.
Eloise sat on her great-great-grandmother’s lap looking absolutely giddy. They made an adorable couple!
To celebrate this unique milestone, the family threw both of them a joint birthday party in Lake Crystal, Minnesota. Vivian Dahl has lived her entire life in Lake Crystal and the 100-year-old does not plan on moving either.
Much like any other 100-year-old who lives to see such a monumental birthday, Vivian also had some advice for those looking to live a longer life too.
The grandmother of many said, “No smoking, no drinking, and no candy.” She alluded to the fact that the secret to her long life was a healthy diet that did not involve smoking, drinking, or candies.
Well, there you have it! The secret to a long life.
This is such a heartwarming story! How many people even get to celebrate their birthdays with their great-great-grandchildren present let alone be able to celebrate along with them! This story really reminds us to cherish our elders and celebrate with them for as long as we are lucky to have them around.
We wish Vivian Dahl and little Eloise a very happy birthday. Share this adorable story with your friends and family to make their day!
