Last month I was able to head out to El Paso to surprise my grandmother for her birthday. My favorite thing to do with my grandma is play canasta. It's a fun card game and things can get a little competitive when we play. The first night I was there my dad, grandma, Terry, Patsy, and Joey played into the late hours of the night. I must say it was a little odd not have Peter playing with us but since he is at the Naval Academy I guess he's got a good reason.
This card game is more than a game. It's been a bonding tool between a grandmother and a few of her grandkids. I can remember my times as a little girl going over to grandma and grandpa's house once a week to play cards. It's a game that bonds us to her now and forever.
