Grandma and Grandpa Great Celebrate 70 Years of Marriage


Sharon’s grandparents celebrated their 70th anniversary earlier this month and it was such a fun family day. Several of us attended their little church in the country and we were even joined by some cousins from Nebraska. There were lots of happy stories and memories of good times. Grandma and Grandpa are in their early 90's; both still drive and are very active.We are so blessed!


So many people said great things, but this simple thing really hit me….my cousin Cassidy commented on how her friends tried to play in a kiddy pool, but it was too cold. She didn’t realize that could be a problem…..Grandma always warmed water on the stove for her kiddy pool. That’s the grandma I want to be someday!

Grandma and Grandpa Great…we love you so very much!


I wish I would have gotten more photos at lunch time, but I was too busy yakking. Here’s one of AnnaMaria with her cousins, Joseph and Eli.

What a blessing to have the relationship with grandparents. It so warms my heart seeing the kids with their grandparents. Mine warmed up the pool that way too!!!
