I fixed it, though.<br /><br />That is SO COOL abt your son and husband!! Wow! How fortunate your son was able to experience that. The times are changing now - who knows if programs like that will last?<br /><br />I wish I could see one of the liftoffs in person...Well, gosh - I guess there is only one more I COULD see.

Amy--
Your comments are closed in your t...Hey Rev. Amy--<br /><br />Your comments are closed in your top post about the space shuttle. <br /><br />I was going to tell you that my husband and son saw one of the lift-offs once in Florida when my husband and son were enrolled in "Space Camp". My son was about 8 or 9 years old at the time and it's something that they will never forget. <br /><br />I still have my son's astronaut suit (a cotton blue jumpsuit) which was an exact replica of what the astronauts wore in training.Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18096051756459933731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-41651050572463474542011-05-14T23:02:36.596-04:002011-05-14T23:02:36.596-04:00Oh, Mary Ellen, what a lovely story abt your grand...Oh, Mary Ellen, what a lovely story abt your grandmother. And what a GREAT combo with the Southern and Italian. That must have made for some mighty yummy meals!<br /><br />It's funny - just last night, when we were out to dinner with our friends, we were talking abt genealogy. :-) (We were laughing abt me being able to be in the DAR and UDCA. Whenever I think of the DAR, I think of Emily Gilmore from "The Gilmore Girls." Teehee!)<br /><br />LOL abt the drive to the White Sox. Hey, we have the Yankees' Single A team here, the Charleston Riverdogs. Won't that work?!? ;-)<br /><br />Glad you enjoyed this post.Rabble Rouser Reverend Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14965609706204555067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-65659757327863575032011-05-14T20:04:30.121-04:002011-05-14T20:04:30.121-04:00Oh...and one of the memories of my southern grandm...Oh...and one of the memories of my southern grandma was when she was close to her last days on earth and she told my mom (in her southern drawl), "Now honey child (minus the d sound on the end), you make sure when they bury me that put on my petticoat. I don't want to go before the Lord without wearin' my petticoat!" I smile every time I think of her.Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18096051756459933731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-10871189136370264822011-05-14T20:01:51.177-04:002011-05-14T20:01:51.177-04:00My favorite line...

It's funny because my mom has passed on many of the southern traditions, and those are the memories I cherish most while growing up. We had a weird combination of southern cooking and culture along with the stereotypical Italian family. Crazy...but great eating! <br /><br />Great post! I soooo want to move to where you are, but the drive to White Sox park would be a bit much. ;-)Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18096051756459933731noreply@blogger.com
