Visit to Boca


My dad has been wanting my sister to take her daughter, Makenna to Florida to meet her great grandmother, my dad's mom. Her health isn't the greatest and he just wanted to make sure my grandma got to meet her 3rd great granddaughter. So, my dad offered to buy plane tickets for my whole family to fly down to Florida.
My mom, dad, the girls and me flew down on April 10th and Mar, Brian and Makenna came down the next day. It's really nice leaving the weather in Pittsburgh for a few days and enjoying the sunny days of Florida.
My gram got their on Saturday w/ my aunt and uncle. The girls call her Gigi. Because my Gram said great grandmother is too much to say and makes her sound old. So she said how about they call me G.G for great grandma, so that's what they call her. When they saw her I said what's her name and they both said "gigi" in their little excited voices!!! She loved seeing all of little great granddaughters. My gram is in great spirits and is always so positive no matter what card she is dealt.
We wanted to get a photo with her, Kayla, Chloe and Makenna. Since the girls wouldn't sit on her lap, our cousin Tracey sat w/ them and since Makenna is too little Mar held her. I just said okay I might as well be in it too so we have all the granddaughters and great granddaughters w/my gram. Since the majority of her grandchildren are boys, 6 boys and 3 girls, it was nice to see if finally evened out!!!
Kayla, Tracey, Chloe, Gram, me, Marlene and Makenna

I'll have to work on resizing that pictures, not sure why it's so small.
