Mother gone wild with a camera in her hands!!
Rachel, Betty's daughter was our hostess and a willing model for her Gramma.
Jordan, Grace's grandson and Mom's great grandson playing with family friend Leona H.
Gary's son, Jacob another grandchild is snapped!
Grace's children Lena and Justin with their, if I must say myself, favorite aunt!!Although I have heard them say on occasion that BETTY is their favorite!
Betty's husband, John talking to Mom's baby, Karen.
Does this little lady look proud or does SHE look proud?
This Friday, we had a special Easter gathering at Rachel's.
Now Rachel is mom's oldest grandchild.
Gramma was ready with her new camera in hand to take some pictures.
As I told you in a previous posting, when we were over at Mom and Dad's house on March 11 and she was obliged to take an anniversary picture of Bernie and me, she point blankly told us that she WANTED a camera.
Well what could we do but get it for her?
After all I had stolen her old brownie camera 46 years ago and I guess I owed her one!
As it appears she is pretty good at getting just the right shot and when all is said and done, I guess we are pretty proud of her.
In the bottom, picture she is looking over the finished product.
I had printed out her best pictures!
All in all she seems mighty pleased with herself!!

So glad that you let your mother have a camera after you took hers all those years ago...about time you paid her back..smile!! Sandy
How have you been lately?
Good Morning Bernie & Terry I know your Mom is a proud Lady when ya'll get together! My youngest daughter sent me pictures of the family reunion last thursday! Blessings. Ron.
So, I enjoyed the family photos that you posted today. You stole your mom's Brownie camera 46 years ago, eh? Now I bet you'd have a hard time finding film for it. Did you get her a digital camera? She did a wonderful job taking the pics. Thanks for sharing your great family memories.
Wow, she ~does~ look proud : ) I think the camera was a such wonderful idea Terry... pictures can bring so much up, and help hold our memories. You are helping her gather her legacy more it feels, and that is such a deep thing. We should feel honored you shared this "legacy in the making", and i thank you for it.
And i had to laugh out loud about your brownie camera confession lol.
Blessed Eastertide : ) Wendy
I love seeing pictures of you and your family. How long is your mother's hair? I like her bun. That's how I'm aiming to wear my hair if and when it gets long enough to cooperate.
What a great gift, I think she should now become the official family photographer as she appears to be very good at it! I loved seeing the pictures, thanks for sharing!
Hi Terry. That lady takes good pictures. And you got her the best present she could have had!
Thanks for telling about that.

Hello Terry! Cute pictures! Enjoy your weekend in Canada! I'm going to hear some Celtic women sing with my Mom this weekend. I'm excited!!!
Grandpaw says howdee ! I think you got that Ron straight , but I should haved warned you that he don't worry about little things .Have you heard that song "Don't worry be happy " they wrote that for Ron. I think that was a swell thing you did for your mom , now if you can get her to start blogging ? Have a good weekend ! Grandpaw?
