Our Family Gathered Together from Near and Far for a "Moment in Time"

Dear Finn & Hazel,
Here are some precious family memories from my Grandmother's 100th Birthday party, that was held in Noti, Oregon. She was your Great Great Grandmother.
Doris Meredith Seaver was born on Dec. 8, 1909, but we had her party on Sunday, Dec. 6, 2009.
The whole family from my Mother's side of the family were there!
 ---->Gramma making a Big Wish!
As you can see I'm into making collages...some are better than others :-)
Rebecca, Lynn & Lacie (aka Laecee)
The whole Family ~ Dec. 2009
At the end of the party when we were saying our goodbyes I found out from my sisters (Jan Manning & Kathy Farwell) that everyone was invited to Lacie's wedding (aka Laecee) that was going to be on June 12, 2010. I then asked her if I was invited to her wedding too, and she said "No!".
After I confronted her about it, we ending up having a big argument outside in the cold dark night. It was absolutely awful... 
I was totally shocked and heartbroken. 
That was the beginning of our estrangement...
Weeks later my youngest daughter, Rebecca Roth, told me that my parents (Phyllis & David Meacham) were going to invite me over to their house for Christmas, but when they heard that Lacie & I had a fight outside at the end of the party, they changed their minds. I was absolutely devastated...
                                              * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
Please remember that I love you both with all my heart...and always will.
Merry Christmas Finn & Hazel
Forever your,
~ Gramma Lynn

My Christmas Wish is to be with my dear Grandchildren

Hello Hazel & Finn,
'Tis the week before Christmas...
You must be getting really excited!  It is a magical time of the year indeed, but for some people it can be really sad...
Both of you are very lucky to be able to look forward to an awesome Christmas, and I hope all your wishes come true.
"All I want for Christmas is to live out the rest of my days living near you in the Granny Cottage on the Farm. Just think how wonderful it would be to have your Gramma there anytime, day, or night, whenever you needed me! I would take care of you with great joy and unconditional love.
Unlike the faerie babysitters and nannies who only do it to get paid, and can't be counted on to stay in your lives." 
Here are three pics for you taken at my parents house in front of their fireplace. My Mom used the last photo as a Christmas card in 1991 when Lacie & Rebecca were just little girls living in Petaluma, CA
Your Aunt Rebecca was 4 years old, not much older than you are now Finn, and your Mommy had just turned 8. I remember her 8th birthday very well, it was her last party in Petaluma.

Rebecca, Lynn & Lacie Roth ~ Christmas 1991 ~ I love my daughters!!
Jan, Mike, Kathy, Dave, Dad, Mom, Stephen, Rebecca, Lynn, Lacie & my dearly departed Gramma Vivian Olga Meacham 1905-1994 (your Great Great Grandmother)
I hope you have a Merry Christmas at Gershenson Abbey с рождеством
Forever your,
~ Gramma Lynn
