GOT A MINUTE OR TWO

Donna, my one and only sister.  She is 6 years older than me, and is the best sister in my world. This picture was taken in 1941.  Our parents had moved to California from Oklahoma when my mother was pregnant with me.  My roots are from the mid-west, but a native born Califorian. Over the years we have not always lived near each other, but when we moved to Hughson, CA to serve in the First Baptist Church it brought me within a few miles of her.  During those wonderful years we spent much time together.  We did "Sister Weekends" at the coast of Pacific Grove and Monterey!  What wonderful memories.  At our age now, and with husbands who are not what they used to be, we don't travel much.   This picture was taken several years ago on one of our sister weekends. She has a servant heart and has been a caregiver all her life.   For her mother in law, our father, our mother.  An Angel in "Donna Skin" is what she is.

I haven't done a "Throw Back Thursday" for a long time.  I was looking through some of my archives and found this picture of my sister, Donna and me when we were so young.  My sis is 6 years older than me and you can see from this picture, I was the little redhead, and she the brunette.   Fast Forward ~~ this picture was taken a few years ago on one of our "Sister Weekends".  We are no longer redheads or brunetts but fashionable older wiser women with our grey locks! This dear sister is 85 and just a sweetheart, doesn't let the grass grow under her feet.  In fact her husband and her still take day trips and enjoy their lives.  Usually to the ocean.  We both have a love for the ocean!
