Great G's
Hudson & Reagan are lucky enough to have some great grandparents still living.
And they LOVE them, a lot.

These pictures are of H and my maternal grandmother, and maternal grandfather.
In the above picture H is snuggling up to Grandma Carol, in her bed...
watching Iron Man {I am assuming}.
This is when we visited last Jan. H & R's first experience with snow.
The next picture is of H and Grandpa Jerry. Here he is helping grandpa clip/trim the trees in July.

When I was younger I loved visiting my great grandparents.
I remember:
- one set of them always had those tiny butter mints, that look like chocolate chips.
- I snuck into the hospital when one was passing away to say goodbye.
- One made a 7 course breakfast... it was delish.
- One always pulled taffy in her basement, and we would sneak down to get some. She also had a basement FULL of books.
- The first time I played the game twister was at one of their homes, in the entry of their home.
- One also saved all of the old barbies, and I would love to just look at hem, and the black "liner/eyelashes". They were beautiful.
- She also had an organ that was a hoot to play.
- One passed away on my birthday one year.
- I used to visit two, whom were in the same nursing home, at different times; while at college.
- Spencer only met one, while she was at a nursing home.
They all made a small imprint on my life.
And I am happy that my grandparents can do the same in my children's lives.
