Granny's gone and done it again

Nice picture, who took it?
You should see all of the family that was out there!! They video taped it. His family did. They brought her up there, got to the area with hands over her eyes. Then left her standing in front of the path telling her to keep her eyes closed..he did this. Then when he got to the area with the roses and the sign, he says, open your eyes. She opens her eyes, sees all of these people that had kept pretty quiet, then looks straight ahead, gets to him, he hands her a beautiful Bosque of flowers then gets down on his knee. She said .. yes! ☺️
 
Now Austin has Covid. Tested yesterday, was negative. Stuffy this morning so tested..positive. Went to Christmas party and his side job later last night. . does mocktsils for advents. This was for a wedding reception. Litte Ashton gets up at 4:30 in the morning telling mom and dad that he has a stuffy nose. He was negative. Will test again before he heads to school on Tuesday..if stuffy nose isn't gone. Baby girl tested negative. She is acting fine. Now Austin will stay in the bedroom. Hope he doesn't get real sick. He's a worrier..about work. He's got a lot of appointments with his main job. Heck, I said, I may as well test. LOL. Bronwyn says, let's test together. 😄 Ok. I was negative. She's still got a - light line..positive. She's feeling pretty good. Still has that sticky feeling, and sound at the back of her throat. They'll be well for Christmas. I hope I will! I may be a late bloomer. 😄 I've been around her before she tested, when she was feverish. I was around Austin all yesterday. I'm praying we can all be well for Christmas.
My DH tested positive this AM. My test shows the faint pink line. Took 5 days for him to get it.

How sweet. It looks like no one else it there.

They should have come to Christmas party and did it there.
 
The History of 'APRONS'
I don't think most kids today know what an apron is. The principle use of Mom's or Grandma's apron was to protect the dress underneath because she only had a few. It was also because it was easier to wash aprons than dresses and aprons used less material. But along with that, it served as a potholder for removing hot pans from the oven.
It was wonderful for drying children's tears, and on occasion was even used for cleaning out dirty ears.
From the chicken coop, the apron was used for carrying eggs, fussy chicks, and sometimes half-hatched eggs to be finished in the warming oven.
When company came, those aprons were ideal hiding places for shy kids..
And when the weather was cold, she wrapped it around her arms.
Those big old aprons wiped many a perspiring brow, bent over the hot wood stove.
Chips and kindling wood were brought into the kitchen in that apron.
From the garden, it carried all sorts of vegetables. After the peas had been shelled, it carried out the hulls.
In the fall, the apron was used to bring in apples that had fallen from the trees.
When unexpected company drove up the road, it was surprising how much furniture that old apron could dust in a matter of seconds.
When dinner was ready, she walked out onto the porch, waved her apron, and the men folk knew it was time to come in from the fields to dinner.
It will be a long time before someone invents something that will replace that 'old-time apron' that served so many purposes.
Send this to those who would know (and love) the story about aprons.
REMEMBER:
Mom's and Grandma's used to set hot baked apple pies on the window sill to cool. Her granddaughters set theirs on the window sill to thaw.
They would go crazy now trying to figure out how many germs were on that apron.
I don't think I ever caught anything from an apron - but love ❤️ ❤️
 
How sweet. It looks like no one else it there.
Let me see if there is one that shows some family. Yep, here's one.
