Last weekend we had a family party after Robert and Whitney's open house. Michel was our official d.j. Grandma was standing off to the side, leaning on her cane. "Shoop" by Salt and Peppa came on and Grandma was dancing! She was so cute...I could hardly stand it. Just before that she was on the ice skating rink, in her wheel chair with her great granddaughters behind her---giving her a ride. She was grinning from ear to ear! I will never forget it. A few other things about her I love~
she loves....
flowers
dolls
making doll clothes
going to parties
collecting beautiful things
going anywhere...she's always ready
Mimi's Cafe
antiques
Blossom (her dog)
her kids (grand kids)
