Tonight I am remembering my Grandma who was born 90 years ago today.

The picture above is one of my favorite pictures of my Grandma. When I show this picture to friends, they say that I favor her in the way that I look.

I have so many great memories of my Grandma. When I was growing up she lived far away in California, and I remember taking trips on the train to go visit here. I also remember the trips when she would come and visit us.

My Grandma was also a nurse, and helped me make my career choice to work in the medical field. When my grandparents retired they moved to Missouri and I was able to get to know them better.

I really loved my Grandma’s cooking. I especially remember her Banana Creme Pie.

My Grandma also liked and collected Scottie dogs. I have one from her collection that has a lot of meaning for me, but that is a different post.

My Grandma was also a twin.

Here is a picture of my Grandma and my great-uncle when they were young.

I also have great memories of visiting my great-uncle as he lived in Omaha which was not far from where my other Grandma and Grandpa lived.

My great-uncle was a big Huskers fan and always enjoyed watching their football games.  I do not watch much football today, but when I do I like to watch the Huskers and cheer for them. I often think of him when I watch the games.
