Granddaughters

My late husband and I were blessed with three granddaughters - such joy they brought to our lives and are still bringing to mine. This is Norah - married to Chad and living in Chicago. They were married a little over a year ago on Mackinac Island in Michigan. The entire family was there and it was such a great weekend.

This is Molly - she was just married to Doug in Portland, Oregon, a little over a month ago. The whole family was at the wedding and it was another wonderful weekend.


And this is Hannah who just graduated from Michigan this spring in three years and who will leave for Mozambique, Africa, next Monday morning for 27 months in the Peace Corps. Needless to say, this stirs up a mixture of emotions in all of us who love her so much - pride and happiness in her quest to make this happen, and sadness that she will be gone for so long and be so far away. I have written a post on my other blog http://funoldhag-carol.blogspot.com/ if you would like to read it. I have also put a link there to the blog that she will be keeping during this new and exciting time in her young life and she has put up her first post.
Even though these three beautiful young ladies don't go very far back into the past, they will carry things on into the future for all of us. I am so very proud of all of them.

  1. Mackinac Island is a place I've wanted to visit for a long time. What a wonderful place to have a wedding!

    I live near Portland. I hope the weather was nice for you while you were here.

    Great pictures (and memories). :-)
