Betty Nye (Grandma Nye)

Recently I have been able to get to know Grandma Nye a little better.  Over the summer (2011), we went to Hawaii and she came with us.  There were some very interesting times with her but it was very enjoyable.  When we landed in Kona, we went to Costco to get some groceries.  As we were walking in, a lady said to grandma and me, “Welcome to Hawaii” and then gave grandma a hug.  She was pretty happy but a little confused at the same time.

After Thanksgiving, she came to stay with us.  That Friday I took her to the mall to go walking.  She kept wondering if “her mall” (in Twin Falls) was this busy too.  She wanted to go home and check.  The mall was giving out free hot chocolate.  We got some and sat down.  While Austin and I were talking, I saw grandma say, “Go Boise!” to a guy passing by in a Boise State Bronco shirt.  It made me laugh.

This weekend she came up with my mom for Austin’s and Lexie’s swim meet.  She has been really stressing if I have heard anything from the job interview that I had with Reliable Controls on Tuesday.  That was the first thing she asked me while I was helping her into the elevator at the Hart building to get to the pool.  She was really excited.  She keeps telling me that all I need is a wife now.  Since I will be moving down to Salt Lake for my job I told her she will need to visit me so we can go to a Jazz game.  She got pretty excited.  She really loves the Jazz.
