Boys,
My favorite memory of past winters when I visited with Grandpa and Grandma Souligne were the SLEDDING!! Right on your street!!!! I have an old picture of that SOMEWHERE??? I am truly SORRY ERIC for all the "teasing and trauma", that we older kids did to you-seems like you were our whipping post! Sure doesn't seem like we "WARPED" you too badly! Alot of card games and hide-and -go-seek, in Indiana. Someday I hope you both can come and attend our annual campout at Mississinawa (sp)? They have cabins for those of us that have no camper-like me! It would be so fun-I had a blast talking with both of you at the motel at Crissy's wedding! And remember the INK DRESS?? Thanks for running me to K-mart to buy a new one!
All my love to my two favorite fellow redhead cousins! I will miss your parents, as I know you will also.
Snow here in Ind. tomorrow-just thought you'd like to know!
You are in my thoughts and prayers,
love, sue highland
