Matt's Great Grandma Goodwin died this week, on Monday. She was 93!!! I can't believe it. She had been in a nursing home for about 7 years and finally was able to go and be with her sweetheart who died in 1981!!! I can't believe she had been a widow for so long. Anyways we went to her funeral yesterday and it was really nice. She had 3 children, 17 grandchildren, 64 great grandchildren and 36 great-great grandchildren. Isn't that amazing that this one family has over 100 people in their posterity. I don't know if I have ever known someone that had 5 generations still living so I just think this is neat. I didn't really know her very well since she has been in a nursing home most of the time Matt and I have been together, but she was a wonderful lady from what I hear from all of her family. I don't think I want to live to be that old....but I don't have control over that.
Matt and Parker went golfing this morning with grandpa and my sister and her fiance. We will all be getting together after they are finished for a little lunch. We have had a lot of fun together this summer. It is nice to have family close to be able to do those things with each other.
