Yesterday, we attended the Apple Tree Branch with Grandma Great to hear her speak. She recently moved there and the Branch Presidency asked her to introduce herself and speak. The girls and I joined my mom and Uncle Charles. Then the surprise for Grandma Great was my cousin, Angela and her family, from Seattle area who were in town for Scott's family reunion. It worked out for them to come to church with Grandma Great and hear her speak as well! She did a great job! Afterwards, we took the time to snap a few pictures. We have been trying to be sure that we get pictures every time family is in town, just so that we can have some good pictures with Grandma Great. Here's a picture that we go of everyone who came to listen to her. I noticed that my PHEBE is doing the "PEACE" sign! Ugh...I don't know why she does things like that to "RUIN" a picture, but then if you know her well, she can't "RUIN" a picture, but add to it! She's definitely a SPUNKY girl!
It was fun to have a few minutes with the Walker family. My girls and Angela's girls just picked up from where they left off last time we saw them (for Bryce's wedding last summer!). I wish we lived closer so that they could do things more often with them, but it's amazing how fast they "RECONNECT" with family when they do see them!
I'm grateful for my Grandma Great! She's an outstanding lady for being almost 93 years of age! She has a strong testimony of the gospel and talks about her family very often and loves to be able to see family and talk with them on the phone or even get mail and emails (HINT to those out of town!). We look forward to the time we have with Grandma Great!
It sure was fun to visit with you last Sunday at Grandma's rest home.
