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"!

Goodbye to July

Hello again, friends! This is going to be a long and picture-covered post...hope you don't mind! When I was finished putting this post together I scrolled through and realized that this could be like four or five separate blog posts! But instead of deleting all the pictures and starting over, I thought you all might enjoy one loooong photo collage of our multifarious days of July. (cool word...simple meaning :)

How many kids can a sofa hold??


Ergo love with not so little Sammy

Nurse Nancy taught Johanna how to play the harmonica and gave her her own kit!

Fun times

Out to a special, surprise, birthday lunch with our friends

Kate and Vanessa- beautiful, godly young ladies

Three more special friends, Christa, Johanna and Ellie ;)

Mrs. Holly and I, always having fun together!

Mrs. Patty brought her sister-in-law over to visit with Grandma Margarete

A lovely portrait (minus the dog in the background)

Vanessa was blessed to help out a sweet family every week and got to spend time with these cuties
