Matt met his great-grandma once when he was young, but hadn't seen her in recent years with being in the Marine Corps. I have sent her a Christmas letter every year for the past few years and get one in return, so I have almost felt like I know her, without ever having met her for real.
Several weeks ago over spring break, Matt and I went with his mom, brother and sister up to see great-grandma Rose. She is this little spunky thing, less than 5 feet tall with a great smile. We took her out to lunch which she insisted she pay for, and showed us around her rural Minnesotan town. Then, back at her apartment, I [of course] suggested we take a few photos before we said goodbye.
