"Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree"

 Couldn't help but hear,"Don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me" playing over and over in my head while I was taking these photos. When I was little, my Granny would sing this song to me and we would dance until my heart was content. Now, I have my own apple tree, and this year it was overflowing with beautiful blooms. You never know.... I may do a little apple tree jig!

Click on the lyrics to listen to my old memory. Enjoy!

It has been too long.....

.............It has been too long since I had seen my Granny. Her living arrangements are different now and she is no longer at home. So, my Mom and I went on a small road trip to go and visit. We made sure that she had lots of hugs, kisses, and flowers for Easter. She was so surprised to see us, it was so great!


When we arrived, the nurses had everyone outside enjoying the sun and having a little fun for Easter. Some of the residence were dressed for the occasion sporting bunny rabbit ears!



This is "Speedy" with his bunny rabbit ears. This fella is a speed demon!



Say hello to Vern! Her and my Granny have come to be great friends. They eat breakfast together, play cards, and go for long walks down the hall. Vern is a sweet sweet Lady.




It was so wonderful to spend the afternoon with her. There truly is no better love, than the love from a Grandmother! Happy Easter Grandma.... I love you!
