My favourite grandma stories.... Dress up with your jewelery. Gina would only wear mink.:) she loved that jacket! I loved the popcorn ..kiddy pop...we did over the fire. I loved the fruit loops you would keep for us because we weren't allowed on a normal day. I loved sitting on the deck in Matlock smelling the fresh cut grass. I remember going to the lake and you and me trying to get Gina to the hospital when she cut her chin copying me! Loved you telling me men advice, very wise :) Any finally.... "Kirsty, just always do what makes you happy and live your life for you" Love you grandma, Kirstin, aka Dolly - Posted by: Kirstin swanson (granddaughter ) on: Jul 21, 2014
