Pic from the past:
For today:
WE say
time flies, but we all know that is said after the time has flown.
Looking back, most of the times, the wait wasn’t as bad as I thought.
Like Christmas to a boy awaiting his favorite toy under the tree.
Did you notice that we had an Earth quake awhile back that slowed the Earth's rotation by ten Micro seconds. If that happens a thousand or so more times, we will slow down a second. And it will seem like Spring will never get here....LOL
Being
honest, these 85+ years of mine don’t seem so long, maybe they haven’t flown by, but
it didn’t take 85 years methinks. LOL.
OH YEAH, I enjoy having a grand named Sherece Marie for one. She had a combined
name of Sherry and Mary, her grandmothers. And there is Luke Vegas a combo of a
Bible Character and Las Vegas. Come to think of it we have several Bible
Characters. Matthew, Luke, Stephen (Steven), Joshua.
Our first Grandson was 4 or 5 when we met him. He came into our home when JJ married his mother. He was a cute kid with red hair, Corey. I had ever heard the name, but I liked it..
Then GGrands
with neat names also. Of course Maverick is Unique, Kennedy too. Rosie and
Elsie and the ones named Jack are super good. LOL I also like Stella, I like to think Stella
Bella. Then we have a Jude, biblical and of course there is ‘Hey Jude!’---- Wiley
and Oliver are also used plus Joshua and Andrew.
Benjamin
Aaron has the names of his two ggrandpas, while also being from the Bible.
Bible names
are good, just glad none were named Jehosaphat, Amittai or Gathhepher! IF one had been named Gathhepher, I would have
been forced to call him Grasshopper!.......... Ah shucks, that wouldn’t be too
bad.
Our troop taken by a lake in Utah. Only had two great grands at the time, both girls in arms, Elsie Mae and Stella Bella.
Just
thinking with my fingers. Is there a unique name you like!

Okay, it's going to take me a while to think of some 'unique' names. Hard to beat Luke Vegas. That sounds like a movie star!
Speaking of treasures (last post), I love these old photos you're showing. There's just something about them (mine and yours and everyone else's) that draws me in. Perhaps the clothing or the hair ... just the purpose of standing and posing. Taking photographs "back then" was a deliberate thing. So unlike all the impromptu captures I get today with my phone.
What wonderful family pictures, both Shery's and your own. We too have several Biblical names in the family. We have a Marthew, Mark and Luke. Some have the middle name of John, but the most unique was my son Merrill, the youngest of the bunch who was named after Merrill Stuben from the show, the Love Boat. One of my grandson's is called Chase, and I always think of the Chase Bank when I hear his name. He does love to collect coins!
Lovely family photos. :)
Jack I read your other post on food and menus I guess, but I could not leave a message on it for some reason.
If you want chicken and dumplings check out Cracker Barrel.
I throw away the core of the cabbage.
Can't say much about fish stew.
My go to food is that I throw in chicken broth and a ton of every kind of veggies. There you go. Sometimes I throw a little cut up smoked sausage.
Now on this post - I am sure impressed with all your wonderful grands and great grands - I am jealous in a nice way. lol
