A Visit to Great Grandma Lucy

We have been wanting to make this visit to see my Grandma Yorgason ever since Grace was born! She lives in Fountain Green, Ut. (which is close to Manti) in the family homestead which holds many childhood memories for me. We slept over Friday night and spent Saturday morning helping her clean off the porch, playing at the park, looking at bugs and flowers, and visiting with Grandma. It still felt too short. We loved our time with Grandma! She was so sweet with our girls!

Here's Millie in front of the monument (built in memory of Charlie's Monument) and Grandma's very old apple tree that my dad used to climb in after his mother died

Grandma let Millie pick a daffodil from her garden

Grandma, meet Gracie!


Gracie loved Grandma!


What a delight!

Hey, that's a familiar place! You know I grew up in Ftn. Green, right? I always forget we have that connection. That's so fun that your kids got to spend time with their grandma. One of my grandmas hasn't met either of my boys yet, so we're hoping to take a trip to Idaho in the fall to see her.
