In honor of getting back in touch with Charissa, I have another family story to share.
My husband, Max, has a Grandma who is just too funny, especially when she doesn't mean to be funny.
Picture this setting: Easter dinner at Grandma's. Grandma is in her 90's and this tiny frail woman is still pretty sharp, and still surprises everyone with her comments. My hubby was looking at a picture of an old car with Grandma & Grandpa standing in front of the car. His Grandma walked up behind him, and made this comment, "Oh, that was the first time your Grandpa and I did it in a car." And then she walked away, leaving my poor hubby standing there with his mouth hanging open. The look on his face must have really been something, because his Dad came over to see what was wrong. All Max could say was, "Grandma just told me that this (motioning towards the picture) was the first time Grandma & Grandpa did it in a car." And then both Max and his Dad were speechless, and more then a little embarrassed.
Grandma shared just a little too much information that day. The family still laughs at that one, of course not in front of Grandma.
