Bob is such a great historian for my mom's side of the family, smart as a whip for being 95 years old.

What a visit. I like how you noticed the details of the Christmas cards. And I noticed that vintage lamp with the lovely shade. Wonderful photos to be treasured. You have told a touching story here in images and words. Your mom, and Bob, will long remember this impromptu stop.Minnesota Prairie Rootshttp://mnprairieroots.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13122238.post-13622700965168132292015-05-16T15:55:23.603-05:002015-05-16T15:55:23.603-05:00It was so cool Brie to hear him talk about my Gran...It was so cool Brie to hear him talk about my Grandpa, I learned some neat things. :)Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09201186319647600605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13122238.post-86828567266141730152015-05-16T15:54:34.874-05:002015-05-16T15:54:34.874-05:00He's actually my 1st cousin once removed, but ...He's actually my 1st cousin once removed, but I know he's an uncle to some other peeps :) I loved the bibs as well Jen, and his heavy knit sweater that he wore over them.Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09201186319647600605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13122238.post-64502160397732734122015-05-16T15:52:46.474-05:002015-05-16T15:52:46.474-05:00You could tell he would have talked all day if we ...You could tell he would have talked all day if we let him :)Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09201186319647600605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13122238.post-34274804280787389552015-05-16T14:27:49.019-05:002015-05-16T14:27:49.019-05:00What a great day!
