thirtieth birthday
party on Saturday.
She traveled down to
Meridian on Friday

granddaughter is finally
feeling some relief from
the pain she has been

both thankful for the
wonderful care Jenny
received at Adams
County Health Clinic.
Mary enjoyed being
out with her friends at
the Friday Knit-Wits
meeting. Oh, and for
Jenny, your grandma
is usually right about
everything, especially the
important issues in your
life, but I will let you
in on a secret. When it
came to Ella Mac Morse,
you were actually right
this one time!

traveled up Friday and
returned home Sunday.
Saturday, they all went
