After "Lunch With Ryan", I went back to the hotel
where my parents were resting up for the
big flight home the next day.
It wasn't long before they decided that we needed
to go back to the cemetery one last time before going home.
It took a lot of effort because it was so cold and ugly out side.
The parents.
We met my brother, niece and Nord there also.
this green bench in front of her grave.
It was way to cold to sit on the bench
but we were all glad that we went back over there.
It's a long way from Georgia and Florida to go
and visit Sissy's grave very often.

We took my parents back to the hotel to get warm
again, can I say bitter, it was some kind of cold!
At 6:00 that evening, The Sweetheart's family had
thrown together a little family pot luck dinner
for my family. It was on short notice and a lot didn't get the message.
I know that they would have been there if they could have.
I was thrilled to get to see as many as I did.
Most of them I haven't seen in about 6 or more years.
I didn't take my camera out until late and
I missed a lot of pictures of those that left early.
I am sorry yall.
I was not happy with the way my pictures turned out.
I so hate my point and shoot camera right now and I am looking for a new one.
Any sugestions?? Please tell me what you have and love.

That was a full BUSY DAY!!!!!
It looks like yall were well cared for during that tough week.
You really are missing some seriously big snow here.
Or
maybe you're not missing it.
Enjoy your weekend!
So very nice to have this time with precious, loving family. May God continue to comfort each of you in the days to come.
One of the benefits of something like this is the opportunity to gather family and spend time.
Looks like an awesome evening
Brrrr. Cold, cold, cold...I am ready for summer already!
So fun getting together with family!
Happy Weekend!
Aw, sweet. So glad you got to get together with family. I'm also glad you guys braved the frigid temps to go back to the cemetery. You're right, it's a long way from Georgia.
Yes, that will be hard for me when my parents or siblings go, since I am across country.
Sorry we didn't have nicer weather for you!
It's always nice to see family you haven't seen in awhile. Sounds like you were well taken care of.
family gatherings are the best. Through the heartache of loosing someone, is is a wonderful gathering and strengthening of family.
I hate winter funerals. so cold and makes for difficult travel and just being able to sit and spend sometime at the gravesite.
I HATE that I live so far away and will not get a lot of opportunity to visit Matt's grave. But, it is just his resting place. He knows I think of him daily.
Looks super cold. But definately a nice family get together. Lots of pictures that will be treasured.
I like the green bench.
I am so glad you went back to the cemetery. I know you are in pain but I was wondering how your parents are doing? So glad you got to spend more time with family.
Last year I was going to get what I call a Big Girl camera but was still afraid of them. I got a Canon Rebel in October and I am still learning the ropes. So last year I bought a Lumix by Panasonic DMC-ZSl and I love it. I still use it all the time!
What a lovely big family.
Did you grow up there yourself Gigi and move later?
