Some Things Don't Change..

   Granny Lou and Papa were blessed yesterday with a partial family visit from some of our kids and grands.

   Dwayne and Karen came from Charlotte, but, alas, without Sawyer and Sydney who are both in California working this summer, and Doug and family are in the process of coming home from that same far west state as their year-long sabbatical ends this month.

   Donna and Noel came with their two, Archer and Cady Gray from Arkansas, and so we had 2 of our 3 families represented.

   Two activities don't change when we gather.



   Food

   And Games around the table

   On our first day together, we learned a new game. Well, new to some of us.



   Over and Out, a card game.

   The simple premise goes like this: Everyone begins with 4 chips. There is a loser on each hand and that player loses one chip. When all players, except one, have lost their 4 chips, the game ends with a winner.

   As Granny Lou kept tabs on all of us from the sideline, we played twice yesterday.

   After just a few hands, one player has no chips and is relegated to taking pictures of the other players.



   The Big Orange player is out first..
