Happy 103rd Birthday, Grandma Elsye!

We visited Evan's Grandma Elsye in Bemidji for her 103rd birthday this weekend.  Unbelievable.  She is doing great and looks the same as always.  We had the best visit with her we've had in a long time.  She had each of the boys choose a small keepsake from her china hutch to take home with them.  Kyle and Ryan picked something out right away.  Carter had a hard time finding something, but then he spotted a wooden house on top of the hutch.  He asked Great Grandma if he could have that, and she said yes.  He was in seventh heaven the rest of the visit!
