May 7 would have been my parents 60th wedding anniversary. I have been going through my Mom's stuff recently and came across these photos again.
It is so fun to reconnect with these memories. My grandmother Gensimore (back, left) was always short, and she got shorter as I got older, both because, of course, I grew, but also because ,with her osteoporosis, she shrunk.
This picture is of my grandmother, Mae Tate Price, my Mom and my Uncle Tom. Tom was killed in Germany during WWII and is buried in France at the Lorraine American Cemetery. We visited there in 2002 during our tour of France. He was a charmer and the bad boy of the bunch, which is hard to believe when you consider my Uncle Dave. They are both gone now. Next week I am going to get to see my cousin David Price. We haven't seen each other for a very long time (probably 47 years due to his parents divorce). I am looking forward to it. David and I were young together in PA long ago. We have gone long roads apart, but God has brought us back together.
I am planning to go back to North Carolina for part of the summer. Of course, Rob is going to Morsetown, NJ in June. We will be spending two weeks vacationing with the kids - on week in Gatlinburg, TN and a week at our house, culminating with a visit to our friends Dave and Sandra Drew in Annapolis, MD on July 3rd. Can't wait for that party!! Should be lots of people we haven't seen for a long time and a chance to show our grandkids off to a new bunch of friends.
If summer ever comes....
