I’m the youngest of three and after my mom’s second boy, she was so determined to have a girl that my parents kept on trying. Back in 2013, this couple had twin baby girls. While very exciting for them, it was an especially important announcement to the rest of their family. You see, all of the relatives of the family had been having boy babies…FOR 54 YEARS. So when Mom and Dad flew for 17 hours to surprise the girls’ grandmother with the two little tykes, you can understand why this is her reaction! For a while, I thought she wasn’t going to let go of those little ones. She just wants to hold and hug them forever. Eventually, grandpa gets a chance though! Congrats to the happy family.

Watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is a tradition for many families. I always remember having the parade on the tiny television in my grandparents’ kitchen while I was enlisted to chop or prepare something for our big meal. My sister and I would pick out our favorites from the legendary balloons. It’s nostalgic. For one grandma, the parade has huge significance. Grandma Boop had been trying to be in the parade for more than 30 years, and on her 83rd birthday, her kids gave her the surprise of a lifetime. She doesn’t know what to think or believe at first, but when she gets it, the look on her face is priceless.

There are more than 30,000 gyms in America…but if you look around, you quickly realize that we’re not utilizing them to the fullest. According to a National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, more than two in every three adults are considered overweight or obese. Roughly 80% of people who join a gym in January will terminate that membership within five months. It seems like people need motivation to exercise and get healthy more than ever. That’s where 78-year-old Shirley Webb comes in. The grandmother recently became a viral sensation when a video of her deadlifting 225 pounds was uploaded by her trainer. After watching this video, you’ll probably ask yourself, “What’s my excuse now?” Webb joined a gym two years ago when she realized that if she was on the ground, she couldn’t get up without some kind of crutch. She wanted to end that and by following the advice of her trainer, she has. (via ESPN) Webb has gone on to set records for lifting in Illinois and Missouri for her age and weight group. She also has no intentions to stop lifting. Go home and look at yourself in the mirror, get motivated, and follow in this woman’s footsteps! Read more: http://www.viralnova.com/old-lady-lift/
I’ve always been envious of people who can freely express themselves and enjoy life to the fullest. It’s not that I don’t like my life, but let’s just say you won’t see me breaking out in dance whenever the mood strikes. That’s because in addition to having absolutely no rhythm, I’m nowhere near as cool as this grandma. Every week, this girl picked up her 88-year-old Nana Feole and took her out to breakfast or lunch. As soon as she would arrive at her house, she’d blast some great oldies from her car and get treated with this awesome sight. You go, nana! She could seriously bring a smile to anyone’s face.
