My Grandmother passed away on July 8th which just so happens to be my now 4 year old daughter's birthday. This was completely unexpected but not suprising as she has had some health concerns for quite awhile. She will be missed. My Grandma was a very giving person and has helped many around her with her generosity. I love you Grandma, you are in a better place and with Grandpa now and for that I am so happy for you! This picture was taken at Christmas this last year, it was our last 5 generation picture. We had five generations for exactly 4 years, that is pretty amazing. My Grandma is the one on the right, not holding my daughter. We had a great time catching up with family members we haven't seen in a really long time while in Iowa for my Grandma's arrangements. One person who sticks out in particular is my Great Aunt she is one of my Grandma's sisters she was telling everyone about my blog so I better get on he ball and start posting more frequently, so this one is for you, Aunt Dee.
Sadly my Uncle passed away on July 20th, 12 days after my Grandma. Needless to say this has been a very hard month and a half or so. He will be missed by so many. He was a sweet spirit and a gentle soul. He left us way to early as he was only 42. He battled colon cancer for about a year. He left a wonderful wife and two amazing kids. His daughter who is a total daddy's girl at the age of 14 and his high spirited son who is 10. They are amazing kids and have an awesome mom and I know that their dad is going to be really proud of what they accomplish.It is so hard to lose love ones and especially so close together but I know that they are in a better place watching over all of us here. I love you both and you will be missed.
