FFF - Cousins




These pics were taken sometime last summer and it must have been a spur of the moment, late night gathering because Sam already has his PJs on. Dryce and Andre are 5 in the pics and Sam would be 18 months. They all play well together and try to include each other. This game is a long standing tradition at Sam's great-grandma and grandpa Graber's house. Playing basketball - the hole that the door makes with the wall is the basketball hoop. I remember way back when I first went to Grandma Grabers Dan, Darrin and Valarie would play this game. Well the cousins are loving it just the same. Over the years there were some broken dishes, but Grandma rarely scolded the kids. Grandma passed away in 2003, shortly after we moved back home. We miss her a lot, I know she would love Sam to pieces. Wouldn't she be so happy to see the greats loving the same ol game of basketball?
