Blue Bonnets

Blue Bonnets are out and this year I was determined to get pictures of the kids in the blue bonnets.  The place we went was covered with them, it was so amazing.  When I got out of the car, all I could smell was the flowers.  Here is a sneak peak at some of the pictures.  I will post more later.

Till We Meet Again

My beautiful grandma passed away today and is now free from the pains of her earthly body. She can now remember all of her family and friends and the beautiful memories she has with each of us. I can only imagine the reunion she is having with her loved ones. She was big into geneology and temple work. There will be alot of grateful and happy people to see her and embrace her.

I have so many wonderful and fun memories of her. Sleepovers where she would braid my hair, the slippers she would knit for us each christmas, the toilet paper she wrapped around her hair each night before bed so that it didn't mess up her hair, the walks to the park to play, birthday shopping, BBQ's at grandma's house, she always came to everything I did whether big or small, she was big into temple work and took us to do baptisms for the dead as soon as we turned 12, she was always trying to connect people through geneology which made it hard to date because grandma was always trying to find a way that you were related, she believed everything you told her even if it was far fetched, she was so proud of her grandkids and took every opportunity to introduce them to everyone she knew, she loved to take us to wheeler farm, she made the best homemade ice cream (grape nut being her specialty), she loved her family and friends unconditionally.

I am going to miss her terribly, but I know she will always be close by because grandma doesn't miss anything. She was always at every event. She loved to be around her family.

I love you grandma and will miss you till we meet again.
