She was quite a woman. The wife of a farmer who lost part of a leg when he stepped on a land mine in France during WWII. She was very proud that she had graduated from high school and had office jobs most of her life. She also made the best Christmas candy ever!!Stephanie Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02976709475515458563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829223433007649672.post-7248468610618727652012-04-26T11:46:33.303-04:002012-04-26T11:46:33.303-04:00I loved this post and seeing pictures of your gran...I loved this post and seeing pictures of your grandmother.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772667430500306088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829223433007649672.post-1222134887047471772012-04-25T11:41:27.950-04:002012-04-25T11:41:27.950-04:00Amanda, my dad's side of the family tends to b...Amanda, my dad's side of the family tends to be taller and thinner (except my dad missed those genes). In my mom's family women hover around 5 ft and are "pudgy" to put it nicely. Part of our problem is that we also love food. I'm working really hard this year to create a new healthy lifestyle for my family!Stephanie Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02976709475515458563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829223433007649672.post-4607170907632602232012-04-24T19:00:33.369-04:002012-04-24T19:00:33.369-04:00First, your grandmother is adorable.

I remember my grandmother going on a diet, and taking off (for good) about 35 lbs. My mom? Is having just the slightest problem with her weight, now that she's hit SIXTY.<br /><br />I take after my dad's side--sigh.Amanda Townehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15363178894677380178noreply@blogger.com
