Visiting the Aunties

While we were at Andy's, we were able to visit Paul's Aunt Grace pictured here and my Aunt Midge. Aunt Grace will be 98 this month and here she is doing crossword puzzles!
She lives in the family home in which she was brought up. It is on an island near Seattle. She is the only one remaining in her family. She had two brothers and four sisters.
She still drives and her driver's license is good until she is 105! People ask how her driving is.
We don't really know. Paul drove to church!

Paul's sister, Ruthie, Aunt Grace and Paul

My Aunt Midge turned 99 at the beginning of August. She lives in a nursing home in the Vancouver, BC area. My cousin, Carol, lives very close but, unfortunately, she was away when we visited.

Aunt Midge is my mom's only sister. We were always very close to her and her family. She is very cheerful, upbeat and praising the Lord every time I talk to her. What a treat to visit our aunties!
