Fun with grandchildren – snow painting! I’d never heard of this fun idea before. I’ll have to give it a try wiith my grandchildren some day. 🙂
When I was young, I loved going to my grandparents on Saturday nights to watch Lawrence Welk with them. I have such fond memories of those times. So it was fun to discover that it’s time for a big Happy Birthday to Cissy King today! Here is a clip of a 2012 interview with her.
