Hi Nanny and Moosie! Once again beautifully told story between you both. It's a wonder you didn't write a book like the Laura Engals series. I bought her whole collection. I learned so many things from her books like self sustaining living. Which is quite valuable in today's luring threats. I also remember my days of being so gorgeous. Just like you! Oh what memories. Love you both!

[@sharondevries1985]

Nanny and Moose, what a wonderful chapter in the saga of Nanny and Moose and family! You both painted a picture that I could visualize. Bless Blondie’s heart for bringing you to my back yard. I know that you and your family must have loved the weather. No more frozen car locks. We can snow ski in the morning and water ski in the afternoon. I giggled when I saw you Nanny, with pig tails in 1971. I thought of you that way last summer. All of your adventures would make a wonderful book. I am writing my life story for my grandchildren. I want them to know everything in my own words so that events are not distorted. Your family has all of these wonderful videos to look back on. Was Moose still with the Singer company when you moved here? We may have crossed paths more than once. I know that I shopped your store. The photos are so sweet. They remind me of that time when we were raising our own children. Isn’t it special to reminisce about our youth. We were incredibly busy with family and life and had no idea what the future held. But now we can reflect on the highs and lows and realize that the life lessons, the experiences and just living life has brought us wisdom. Of course the young people are not always open to our sharing that wisdom, but we know! I am anxiously awaiting the next chapter in your saga. How is Shasta? Please take care of each other. Blessings to you both, love, Sharon

I second the book idea and a storybook for children starring Blondie and the dog at Whitehouse station.--Similar to Cheaper by the Dozen, the family who lived in Montclair, NJ.

[@crushingtheir80snannyandmoose]

Then as life is and such a small world , you had a shop in the same town I lived in most of my childhood and adult life when I moved back to Calif. I visited your shop several times.

Well, you’ve done it again. Another beautiful episode. I’m hooked and hated when it ended. You and Bill are a beautiful testimony of what marriage and family can be. Two loving people who work together so beautifully. It is so apparent that you appreciate and honor each other. How courageous of you for staying back and taking care of business, and then how loving and appreciative Bill was with the gift of your watch. Mary Ellen, you seem to have carried your beliefs of honoring you parents through out your marriage by honoring one another. FYI, you videos are not too long. I was so disappointed as it ended. Bill looks great and you are looking even more gorgeous with each new video. Your smile is so warm and your words have the ability to change people’s attitudes and give people hope about life’s changes. I believe you are an instrument of the good Lord to show us His love, and you are teaching people how to love and spread joy. Thank you Mary Ellen for giving us your time and sharing your wisdom and the journey of your life, of your life with Bill and your life with your wonderful kids and all your beautiful grandchildren and great grands. .

What fun! Neither me or my hubby moved around around. He grew up in Amherst, Mass. I grew up in cotton country in Arkansas on the banks of the Mississippi River. When he went into the Air Force, we met when he was stationed in Arkansas. I didn't want to be a Yankee and he didn't want to pick cotton so we hopped into our 1965 GTO and toured the East Coast looking for a place to live. We settled in Richmond, Va and began our family. We are still in our starter house which fits us perfectly today. You two have had a golden life with a lot of excitement. Let's face it there was little to get excited about in Northeast Arkansas. 56 years together, and it was a great to be a young family.
