Well I have seen advancements in computers, telephones, VCRs and DVDs.

About: Philip and Alice (Weatherwax) Harris

When was eight years old I spent the summer with Grandma and Grandpa. I loved the big weeping willow tree outside, and at the time it had a swing on it. I told Grandma that I was going outside to swing and Grandpa told me not to touch the branches of the tree or I would turn into a bird. I believed everything Grandpa every told me, I also wanted to swing, so I got on my stomach and crawled army like under the branches until I got to the swing. Grandma came out and asked what I was doing, so I told her what Grandpa said. She started laughing so hard and broke the truth to me that Grandpa was only joking. Since then I never new if he was telling me the truth or not!!

4. Did you ever have an accident, illness, or an operation? Pick one and tell about it.

I haven't had any thing serious happen.

5. Tell what your hobbies or interests are. (Do you sing, sew, write, hunt, build things, let us know more about you.)

I love to read. I have started a book club with a few members(most of which are family members). If you recommend a book to read, I'll usually get it that day and have it read in no time. I am a beginner quilter. I have been working on the same quilt for about 5 years. I am near the end and it really shows that I am a beginner. I still love to sing, but only at home. Liam loves to sing along now with me with a beautiful aah sound. I love crafts and I am trying to do more scrap booking. I enjoy making jam in the summer and for the first time canned peaches and salsa. I love berry picking and would love to go to Grandpa's and help him with his!!

6. Tell about the changes in television. (Anything you want, earlier shows vs. today's shows, invention of VCR's & DVD's, the sky's the limit.)

I think that morality has declined on t.v shows and that families are suffering. It is amazing what is allowed to be aired on t.v and how we tend to accept it.

7. Lets be romantic! Tell us about your valentine, first love, first crush, or how you were proposed to, or how you proposed to your sweetheart.
