Charlestons on the Go: Christian's Graduation

We got back to Iowa and one of the first orders of business was my great nephew's graduation. I went down to Omaha on Thurs. to join my sister from Alabama and her grandson who was there with her. This was a time for Logan, my great, great, nephew and Dexter, my great nephew, to have some bonding time. Here they are having some fun with Christian's grandmother and me. We were telling them there was a rabbit hole in the ground. My grandfather used to do that to us kids.
