Today we drove from Minneapolis to Stockholm, SD to where Todd's mom and step-dad live. On the way we stopped to visit Todd's Grandma Orpha in Appleton,MN(Todd's hometown). Grandma Orpha will be 89 this March and has been a widow for nearly 20 years. She just recently moved into an assisted living home, but before that lived on her own. She is so full of personality and we really enjoy listening to all of her stories from back in the day. James is one of her 35 great grandchildren and we find it amazing that she remembers all of their names. We have found that James really takes to people that have glasses so it was no surprise that he gave Grandma Orpha lots of smiles. We are lucky that James hasn't had any stranger anxiety. He is very social, loves to be around people and is always smiling at strangers when we are out shopping or at a restaurant.
