A trip home to honor an amazing Grandfather!

The world lost a great man on July 20th. He taught us about integrity, humor, sensitivity and love. I am saddened to say we did not make it home in time for Lillian to meet him but I know she loved her great grandpa. We are sad to have him gone but know he is in a much better place now. We miss you grandpa and we hope you know how special you are to us. (Above he is pictured with his fiance Vivian- also a wonderful woman.)

Colin's family were sweet enough to come down for the funeral and to see the new addition (left to right Julie, Colin, Lily, Big Brother Dave, Carrie, Sheila and Chuck).

Play time on our favorite quilt made by Liz - thanks Liz (yes there is a giraffe on it just for me)!
