Grandad's Annual Beach Trip Speech

Grandad: "Babe, another Corona, will you babe?"
Barbara: "Okay hun."

Daniel: "Hasn't he had like four beers?"
Aunt Linda: "He isn't supposed to be drinking with his new medication..."
Aunt Mimi: "Why is Barbara giving him another?"
Ben: "Well obviously she wants him to kick the bucket, Aunt Mimi. Barbara's like, what, 40? And aren't we celebrating his 78th birthday this week? What is this; Hugh Heffner?"
Aunt Linda: "Benjamin!"
Ben: "I mean honestly. Grandad is going to fall over any day now. She's clearly a gold-digger."
Daniel: "But she ain't messin with no broke, broke!"
Logan: "Shut-up, Kanye."

Grandad: "Everyone! It's time for me to- gather around. I want to give a speech."
Uncle David: "Here we go again..."
Daniel: "Should I go get the other cousins?"
Aunt Mimi: "I don't know if I want my kids to hear this, remember his last speech?"

Grandad: "Everyone, I want you to first know that I love you. I love you all. Secondly, every year we come here and I give a speech. I may be a few beers deep this year, but I love you. I love all thirteen of you grandchildren."
Uncle David: "I think you mean fourteen..."
Grandad: "I love all of my kids. But, we all know that sadly, one cannot be here with us tonight. I would like to take this time to have a moment of silence for my beautiful daughter. She passed away as we all know. So, everyone, let's take this time to have a moment of silence for Mimi. Oh, poor Mimi. We all miss her dearly."
