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"!

Working together 


Vanessa gets creative with her decorating

We try not to make a habit of eating large spoonfuls of yellow frosting (Johanna)

Mom with her cookies ;)

Summer sausage, cheese and crackers, oh my!

Good girl moonshine... Oh yeah!


*The best* queso dip

Made and eaten by Vanessa Elaine :)

Junebug is ready to dig in!

So is Margarete!

Our sleepy Lorry-bell

Talks and cuddles


Johanna and Vanessa made these lovely programs for our Birth of Christ Celebration


Getting ready to dig in

We are terrible actors :)

Yumm

Tip of the day: Don't ask someone to say, "Cheese," while they're eating.

Sisters

I love my family!

Our parents are so in love...

...even when their cookie war is still going on ;)

Mama and me!

Johanna serenaded us on the piano

Our lovely mama

Grandma Lorry's son, daughter-in-love and granddaughter, Mr. Chris, Mrs. Christine and Kyla also drove up for a special Christmas visit. It went by too fast!

Lots of Christmas gifts!

The beautiful (and delicious) gift basket! Thank you!

Sweet Kyla and Mr. Chris

Johanna always enjoys visitors, but she seems to really click well with Kyla :)

Silly face

Hugs before leaving

More silliness!
