My Grams

My grams turns 90 on August 24th. I've been going through old photos that I have (not many...) to send to my Mom for the memory book she's putting together.

I thought I'd share some here too...


This is Grams, her brother and her parents. I don't really know the year - but she looks to be in her late teens or early 20's. She was the second yongest of 12 living children.

This one was dated 1958. Grams is in the center with my mom to her right.


July 1971 - my baptism at about 4 weeks old. This is me, my mom, Grams and my great grandmother (growing up I always called her little grandma because she was so tiny by then).

July 1971 - Grams and my mom's dad. He died a few months after this picture was taken.

This is one of my favorite pictures... I remember doing this all the time. I would make Grams drag out all the photo albums and look at them with me. I did it for years and years... she still has most of her pictures in these same albums...


This is YaYa and Grams last fall when she came to visit. I wish we got to see her more often.
