...a visit with Grandma...and a walk down memory lane...

...I'm still trying to get y'all caught up with our busy month of October...
...no visit 'home' is complete without a visit to Grandma...she'll be 101 on her birthday in March...

...while we were chatting...I said that would be an even bigger deal than turning 100...and she chuckled and said...'we'll see'...so CUTE!...
...Scout changed her whiteboard to the correct date (it was fairly early in the morning and it hadn't been changed yet)...'cause she asked what was going on that day...and we looked at her calendar and saw that there would be a movie at 2 o'clock...and she said she didn't want to miss it...again...so funny and CUTE!...
...Mom must periodically change the photos on Grandma's framed bulletin board...as there was this new one that I hadn't see before...

...didn't they used to take the loveliest photos?...so glamorous...not sure we'll look at our 70's and 80's photos years from now and think they were 'glamorous'...
...then back at Mom's...we were looking for a photo of Grandma's Lamp...and found some old photos of Scout...I always think it's funny to see myself in a photo...as I'm usually the one taking the photos...

...a fairly tiny Scout here hunting Easter Eggs at Grandma's house...funniest thing about the photo is Chox standing up like a weasel watching us off to the right...and Mom...I can't tell if she's pulling weeds (always a gardener...you know)...or hiding another egg...
...Scout got his first hand-me-down bicycle from his Grandma...and this was his first ride...
...Scout and his Grandma at 'Grandparent's Day' when he was in kindergarten...

...all so sweet and nostalgic...
...and speaking of nostalgic...we drove by the Church where we were married...
...we often do that when we're visiting...it's just a mile or so out of the way...and I just love looking at it...so many happy memories...
...and here we were on that very Church doorstep...so many years ago...stepping into our new life as a married couple...

~Have a lovely day!
