Sunday at Grandma's House

This is Caroline (I think)... doing what so many grandchildren did at Grandma's house... playing with all the fun and unusual toys found in Grandpa's garage!! So many memories came to mind when we drove up into their long driveway that was filled with cars from other family members! So many Sundays were spent at Grandma's house, kids playing, adults talking, everyone eating, and just enjoying the time together. There was a time when we all lived within a few hours of Sikeston, most of us in Sikeston or close by. And now we all live days away from each other! Still, we have our memories of those years together, and our testimonies of forever families!!Hannah & Olivia Carle... cousins & best friends when they were two years old!
These are the four cousins that were born the same year... within a few months of each other! From Left to Right - Sammy Harline, Aaron Hathaway, Hannah Sargent and Olivia Carle. Saying goodbye to Sarah and her sweet family!!
Mariah and Eric were so sweet to work with John J on carving his dinosaur egg to find the dinosaur bones!! This was a little gift sent with us from our Bishop's wife, Maureen Einfeldt. It was quite the fun treat!!
Laura and her sweet boy, Carl, sitting at the orange breakfast bar (or whatever you call it). So many hours have been spent sitting together and visiting in that very spot!
