Did anything memorable happen that night at your home? We had quite a few men and women from the past join us for dinner. It made for a lively and insightful evening.
Presidents and First Ladies such as:
President Garfield
President Calvin and Lady Grace Coolidge
President Andrew Jackson
Lady Dolley Madison
Lady Sarah Polk
President John and Lady Abigail Adams with their son John Quincy Adams
Lady Hannah VonBuren
President Abraham Lincoln
President Zachery Taylor
Each person from history went around the dinner table and shared who they were and what role they played. We heard stories of courage, love, devotion, graciousness, self-denial, mercy, and hope.

How creative! Thank you so much for this post. The ” Little John Quincy Adams ” is adorable!

Nothing like foundational principle and old fashioned fun to bridge the centuries.
God multiply such statesmen.
HAPPY NEW YEAR,
Need to see John Quincy again. I know he has grown like a weed this past year.
Guess I will have to start the new year out by driving out to see him and ya all. Am sure John Quincy is keeping busy with his new wheel borrow.ha
