Great Grandma

     Today after church we traveled over the river and through the woods to Grandmother's house to visit for a while.  Her birthday is coming up in another week and a half, so we used this opportunity to bring Madison up and have a small gathering.  

     Ye-Ye and Nana were already there, helping out by doing some household chores - but all that stops when Madison shows up.  Madison ran up and gave her great grandmother a big hug when she saw her, and gave her a birthday card from all of us.  Daddy carried along a gift bag, and Mommy carried along some key lime pie (oh boy!).

     It was a pleasant visit, one that Madison enjoyed quite a bit.  She played on some of her great-grandmother's exercise equipment, and of course played around with Ye-Ye and Nana.  The weather was very nice outside, so we talked out there for a bit, and even walked across the old airstrip to our former house.  Yes, we all used to live on an airstrip.  

     The airport was quite busy today, and Madison watched several airplanes take off - and even an ultra-light.  Mt. Yonah still loomed in the distance, but quite a bit has changed in White County.  You could see that even with the photographs lining Great Grandmother's shelves:  along the bottom were the newer ones, with the latest pictures of the newest family member, Madison.  Yes, a lot for us has changed!
