Great Grandma Sleepover...Take 4...

Published on 7.26.2011 in ,

Last year I wrote a long post about the "Great Grandma Sleepover" or GGS...

Monday you saw photos from the shindig, but really, this puts it all in perspective...

tradition...

Published on 8.17.2010 in , , ,

Growing up every year one summer evening all twelve of my cousins and I would spend the night at my grandmother's house.  The older ones would help with the younger ones.  We'd go swimming, and stay up way to late.  Even though I was one of the youngest, I loved it.

My oldest cousin decided a couple years ago to embark on the same venture with all of our kids, with one slight tweak.  As my grandmother is 84 years old, we figured the moms would need to come along for the ride.

Last weekend was the third annual great grandma sleepover. 

You may have seen the photo in my "Friday" weekend in review (yea, little busy last week). 

But I got to thinking that you may want to see just where we've come from in the last few years:
