Picnic


The GRAND~girls and I went with Mom Griffis to put flowers on Dad Griffis grave today.

It was the first time the GRAND's had been there.

They loved it there!

They thought it was so pretty that they

suggested we could have a picnic there sometime.

We got so tickled at them, they are so

precious and say the funniest things.

It is a beautiful and peaceful place and they didn't want to leave.

I guess we will be visiting often.

What a sweet picture. I know having the girls there was very special to your MIL. I can remember when my nieces and nephews were very young, they liked to feed the ducks at the cemetery. Isn't it GRAND that God gives you and your MIL the girls to say the cutest things to get you through the tough times?

I love our cemetery here in town. It's a great place to walk, but I've never had a picnic there! Your grandgirls are so dang cute!

so sweet. Must be a very restful place (pardon the horrible pun). It's nice that it is, and not scary for them to visit.
Love all the pics below Gigi. Looks like he left an awesome legacy.

Praying that your MIL is doing okay. Lovely picture and a picnic would be nice.

That is really sweet. I think children can feel the spirit so strongly - it says alot that they wanted to have a picnic there.

Kids are so cute.

Every year when we go to Canada we visit the old cemetery where some family has been laid to rest, this year we took the kiddos and since then Olivia my 6 yr old has asked me to put cute little things on her spot... I told her I wouldn't be a round and for her to make sure that she told her children what she needed, but not to worry she promised to put cute toys on my grave... So sweet!!
