Seeing Double!

As stated before, this last weekend we were in Blair. Scott and I took the time to go over to the house Marvin and Silvers Yates, Scott's Grandparents, used to share. It was pretty emotional to go over there and be in a house that used to be so full of life. The emotions caught us both a little off guard. While we were there we had the opportunity to pick out a few things to add to our home. One of the things we brought back with us was a mirror that was salvaged from the Yates Family farm house in Creta I believe. It is a big oval, and Mickey remembers Silvers taking the mirror to Oklahoma City to get it re-silvered. We also brought home a treasured library table from the same farmhouse that Mickey refinished for his mom. Elle has been quite inquisitive about the new pieces and so we had some pictures of Marvin and Silvers, and I told her that they were her Mamaws and pointed out Silvers. That was enough for her. Now she walks by the table and reminds us that it is Mamaws. The mirror was another source of fun. Before we could get it hung, we had it sitting propped up in the dining room. Emma walked by it a couple of days ago and she stopped and said ME! The girls had tons of fun looking at themselves in the mirror, and mom was just thankful that they were reflections and not quadruplets!
