Grandma Jeaners Timmy's Memories

Grandma Jean is always nice to me and she sometimes makes jokes that are pretty funny. When the whole family was at her old house, she said, "The first time Boyd died" and we all started laughing.

Grandma Jean's House Ashley's Memories

I remember when all of us cousins would sleep over at Grandma and Grandpa's house. We usually slept in her front room on the floor but Josh loved to sleep in the family room on the couch. Sometimes, we would play tricks on Josh. Ryan would think of something evil, such as getting a big bowl of water and putting Josh's hand in it; or put ice down his pants, etc. Whenever us cousins were still awake talking and laughing, Grandma would hear and wake up and come and shake her finger at us. She would insist that we go to bed right away and she would sit on the couch and just watch us. She quickly slumped her head and was sleeping. We always laughed when she fell asleep and she'd hear and wake up and tell us again to go to sleep.
The next morning, we would wake up (except Josh because he loved to sleep in). Grandma would fix us pancakes that were shaped into Mickey and Minnie characters. I loved that.
Almost every year, on the 3rd of July, us cousins would sleep over and the next morning we would go over to Mt. Jordan to eat the 4th of July breakfast and then we would go watch the parade. We would always have to get up really, really early and Grandma would hurry us so we wouldn't miss breakfast. We always arrived there not all the way ready but it was definitely worth it. I loved those breakfasts.
