My grandfather has the unfortunate luck of having his birthday fall on Christmas Eve, but since he just celebrated his 93rd, I guess he has at least some luck working for him!

Bobby, as we all have taken to calling him, is a kid at heart -- a genuinely joyful person whom we should all strive to be more like.  There's a reason he's stuck around this long.  A former train engineer, the old guy was tickled with these childlike, fun cupcakes.  Whether you are 3 or 93, you should celebrate with the same youthful enthusiasm for life, and he really does!
