My Memories of Grandma and Grandpa.

Kathy Gunter, Grandaughter Feb 05, 2009

Grandma, Grandpa and the boys staying with us on Avalon when they first moved to Michigan.

Spending holidays at the Ursuline house. Grandma’s fried carrots, cinnamon buns, and cookies with Hershey kisses inside.

Grandma chasing us girls through the house acting like she was going to spank us with a spatula (we and grandma laughing).

Grandpa’s airplanes.

Musgo days (everything in the fridge has to be eaten ‘cuz it musgo today!)

Summers in Jackson, going to the creamery, driving around in the golf cart, sitting around the camp fire talking, roasting marshmallows, and laughing.

Family reunions in Jackson.

Grandpa’s shish kabobs.

Fishing with Grandpa.

Grandpa’s hugs.

My grandparents were the best. I love them, and miss them very much.

Kathy
