Uncle Steve and Aunt Nan With Grandma

"12:30 am and GG has the munchies, eating croutons and mandarin oranges.  Peeled a boiled egg and gave it to me.  Have had a great visit.  Looked at pictures and reminisced.  She loves her family.  Toilet needs a new flapper, I always like having a project!  Rained today, dousing the fire and refreshing the air.  Cool and fragrant."  
These are some pictures included in the message:

Anyone could spend hours looking over Grandma's vast selection of pictures.   One thing is for sure, you will not be disappointed with what you find.  We have all inherited the "munchie" gene from our grandparents.  It wasn't just Grandpa either as the above message proves.  For all you younger cousins, be careful the munching will catch up to you.
We are all so grateful to see Uncle Steve and Aunt Nan out and about and visiting with Grandma Jean, but maybe none as grateful as Grandma herself.

Jentry Alice's First Visit

"She always has something positive to say and makes the best of every situation.  All night she was going up and out of her way to make me feel comfortable.  By 10 pm  she had tried to make me six meals.  I had enough diet coke to last me a lifetime.  I had every pillow and blanket in the house.  I've never met a more selfless person in my life."
Those are great words Jentry, Grandma is lucky to have you as a visitor and a granddaughter.  We can't wait to hear how next time goes.
We also want to wish Granda a very happy birthday!  We love you and wish nothing but the best for the year to come!

Saide Jane Loves Her Grandma

"I had a lot of fun with Grandma last night, she was being so funny."
"I was eating my sandwich and I look up and she was drinking out of this.  I don't know why but I could not stop laughing when I saw her..."
 "I painted her nails and she also wanted me to pluck her eye brows that she doesn't have... Haha"
"She fell asleep as soon as I started painting them.  Goodnight :/"
Great job Sadie J!

Corey, Grandma, & Chinese Checkers

"Well, Grandma and I played chinese checkers (I won).  We watched rodeo on the t.v.  We had dinner and had many snacks.  Then we watched dances with wolves.  It was a great night."
Corey, Grandma never loses at chinese checkers.  She let you win because she is great like that.  We would all like to say that at one time or another we have beaten the master, but it's impossible.  This sounded like a really great evening.  Great job Cor.

Steph & GG

"Me and GG chatted for hours about her past and fun stories she had from hair school."

Those were Steph's words about her first visit with Grandma Jean.  This is a picture of Stephanie and Grandma almost a year ago on a date to Olive Garden.  Think of how many times we have all sat back and chatted with our Grandma.  Whether it be new stories, or stories that we have heard a million times.  Listening to Grandma talk about her past is such a blessing and something everyone should try.

Pudding For Grandma

"Dropping pudding off at the door :)"  Cousin Collin's words as he looked up at Grandma grinning with delight.  Grandma stood at a safe distance so not to catch the cold Collin was suffering from.  Grandma's sure proud of her grandson and would probably joke about how he better be taking some pudding to his future bride.  Great job Collin.
