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"!

Thanksgiving Day, 2012


We had another wonderful Thanksgiving day with the Grandmas and their fun families! We are so thankful for all of your friendship and treasure each and everyone of you so dearly.

Waiting for our guests to arrive

Grandma Lorry's wonderful son and daughter-in-love, Chris and Christine


They were so kind to let Johanna have full control of their camera! She had a hay-day :)

Johanna and lovely Kyla; we so enjoyed talking, laughing and getting to know you better!

Grandma Junebug awaiting her family {Bella Bean was waiting too, but she didn't get any visitors :)}

Actually Bella was keeping a cautious distance from the new face in town :)

Camera troubles

Thank you so much, Chris, Christine and Kyla for driving such a long way to be with your mom/grandma! It meant the world to her and we all just loved visiting with you. 

The table is set


The hot cranberry tea is ready

The grandkids are here! Taylor with his Nana

And lovely Lindsay with Nana

Grandma Margarete welcomed everyone in her own fashion :)

(Actually she was tired of us taking pictures and decided to pose for us :)

We were all cracking up!

Like really :)

In the kitchen, Mr. Geoff and Mr. Taylor were visiting with Johanna and...

...the turkey cutter!

Grandma June and beautiful Mrs. Paige

And Lindsay too!


The lovely J. family and Nana

I just love this picture; it speaks what words cannot express

Margarete's ready to eat

As is Lorry

And of course June!

All together now...

Table talk



Margarete and her wonderful daughter Patty and son-in-law Charlie

DESSERT! The beautiful white cake Mrs. Linda made was for the birthday boy, Mr. Vic

Matching loverlies

After dinner the J. family did some pretty cool magic tricks; here Lindsay is showing Johanna a new technique :)

And here I thought: Oh, they're talking let me snap a photo. And then they thought: You've got to be joking. And then, well, that's when I left :)

Mr. Charlie and Dad talking carpentry

Mrs. Paige was one of our sweet kitchen helpers

And Taylor here gives us a grand finale piece called: Two-finger waltz :)

That's it folks!
