Welcome! We are a Christian family who cares for elderly individuals in our home. There are so many quotes, stories, and photos that we wanted to share with our precious "Golden Girls'" families, which they could view quicker and could be updated easier on this blog than we would ever have time (and memory!) to share with them personally. We also thought others might enjoy reading and viewing along with the families on this great adventure of their loved ones' golden sunset years. So sit back, relax, and enjoy your visit with us and "The Grandmas"!

Summer Pool Party!

This past Friday we had a fun get-together with Junebug's daughter, Linda, her kids, and their kids...that's right: Grandma June has great-grandchildren!  We had fun at the pool, Mr. Geoff bringing along fun and excitement and Junebug enjoying having the power of the squirt gun!  Then headed back to the house for lunch and fellowship, followed by bead-melting fun, photo t-shirt making, an ice cream social, and fun in the backyard pool and slide.  What a fun day it was!

Our Wonderful New Caregiver

We would like to introduce to you Mrs. LaTanya, who has joined our home in the area of caregiving and will be taking care of our Grandmas for us as we get out as a family each week.  She loves the Lord and has such a devoted heart for the elderly she cares for.  LaTanya has gotten to know each of our Grandmas, their personalities and routines, in addition to the complex way our home is run.  We are so excited about our new caregiver and look forward to getting to know LaTanya more and gaining great wisdom from her 20 years of exceptional experience in caring for the elderly.
