Jenni (McNabb Casper) and I were instant messaging about Grandma, and she asked if I knew how Grandma and Grandpa met. I hadn’t heard the story, so she told me:
“It was at Wheaton and I think at church on Sunday– although it could have been at church some other time– and there was a whole pew of college friends and they started passing notes back and forth about Grandma and Grandpa doubling with two other kids there, and what a great idea it would be…and the rest is history! They all went somewhere that afternoon, I think.”
“In college Grandma paid her way for things by working for a lady doing cleaning or taking care of the kids– two, I think– Aunt Mill helped pay for her college, too, I think.”

I am pretty sure that they didn’t know each other when they went on this double date. Grandma told me that it was her first and last blind date.
Awww that’s cute 🙂 If only every blind date could be so fruitful!
