Time with Great Grandma


While we were in Elgin, we got to spend the weekend with the kids' Great Grandma (my Dad's mom). We hadn't seen her in about 4 years, so it was a very special time. She's 87 years old and enjoyed every moment with the 5 great-grandchildren who were there. We were so thankful that we were able to see her and introduce her to Andrew and Evan. Nathan and Andrew have been talking a lot about "Great Grandma" since our trip.

My Grandma still has her sense of humor. I was helping her up the steps to bed one night, and I said, "Let's go get your jammies on." She started laughing hard. I couldn't figure out why she was so amused. Finally, she said, "I don't wear pajamas! I wear a nightgown."

We did not plan to all wear blue shirts!

Everyone enjoyed the bubbles!
