Family Storytellers Mugs

Mrs Smith and her daughter - now and 40 years later...

'You think you've got it tough? Let me tell you how it was when I was your age!'

"Grandpa, I'll tell you about social media bullying, if you tell me about the good old boys network."

"When I wed your grandmother it caused quite a scandal. In the fifties one didn't marry a democrat."

"Oh, you haven’t seen holiday drama ‘till you’ve met our little family."

"A beautiful baby. Who does he take after?"

Marthra

'Oh, I don't think grandma still throws eggs at traffic.'

"Just kick back and enjoy this. These are the nest years of our lives!"

"This is your great-great-great-great-great uncle Pernico. I heard a lot of stories about him. He really wasn't all that great."

"When I was small, my family kicked off the holidays by serving nuts! But then crazy Tia Bertha and Tio Mario moved away."

"Oh, I wanted to be so many things. Of course, being wrinkled was not one of them."

"Well son, it all began when your Mother and I decided to visit the local 'SeaLife Centre'..."

"Feel free to take notes."

"Hey grandpa, tell us more about the time you were in that Steven Spielberg movie."

True confessions.

'It's really more of a family forest than a family tree.'

"It seems like only yesterday that Dad told me I'll be an adult before I know it."

"When I was young my parents couldn't afford to give me too much, too soon."

Biggles has a more staid adventure.

"No, son, you’re not ‘M for Mature.’"

"Your momma lied to you, boy."

Children's Party

'Riley, I think it's time you learned the truth... You're adopted.'

"Oh, she talk a lot...but only about her children."

"Tell us the one about swift justice, Grandpa."

'You were a band geek?! Maybe Max will play an instrument!'

"Grandpa, how did you ever survive without apps?"

"We're not laughing at you, sweetie. We're laughing at something you don't understand."

"See those birch trees on the other side of the pond? That’s the exact spot where your mother first called me an idiot."

Wyatt returns home to visit his old small town.

'It is a big day! Ten years ago, yout dad joined the union!'

"But our history was current events when you were at school Dad!"

"The last one is Uncle Charlie. He was pardoned in 1987."

'I never saw a tracer bullet that I didn't admire for color, clarity and swiftness.'
