Thanksgiving with Grandmother




Last night was the Thanksgiving dinner for the residents at my grandmother's nursing home. Mama, Ellie and I attended with Grandmother. Ellie was a HUGE hit as Grandmother had been talking about her to everyone. She seemed to have a great time with both her MeeMee and great-grandmother.




After dinner, we went to Grandmother's room to change her diaper before leaving. Now, Grandmother has a wig. I think every woman of her age probably has one. I suspect if I make it to 80 I'll have me several. *smile* Anyway, it was laying on the bed, and MEAN that I am, I put it on Ellie and took pictures. I thought I'd share them here. One day, she will hate me for this. She was surely cute in it though -- she'd be cute in a potato sack.




We had a nice time last night!

Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

What a hoot! She really resembles Anara when she has that dark curly wig on :)

That is hilarious! A must for a picture display when she is a senior in high school!
