Goin' home

Today we had the burial service for Grandma Charlotte. i know that several have written about her home going. After the service, which was all family, we went back to the church for a wonderful brunch. Oh, what fun we had. When i married Jim the family seemed pretty small. (i came from a family of 4 children and had both sets of grandparents and several cousins, aunts and uncles). When i married Jim, he had only one bro with 4 children. Well now we have little ones EVERYWHERE!!!! There are 8 grandkids and 10(so far) great grand kids. And of course there are 5 spouses of the grand kids. i felt sad when it was time for everyone to pack up and get ready to leave. Many things will change now that Charlotte is not here. She is missed but i know that she is with her Savior. What a tribute of the grace of God, that all of her children, grand children and now 2 great grandchildren profess to belong to the Lord. God is so good....t

I'm glad you enjoy all of our children-they can be crazy. I am not up to potty training a dog right now...remember we still have Joseph! Have a good day.

It was fun to all be together on Tuesday. Wish we could have stayed longer to visit with everybody. Was really fun to have Frank there with Molly! :)

It's just hard on US isn't it...losing them to heaven and Jesus?

I bet it WAS fun to get the WHOLE family together! Doesn't happen very often does it?

My mom and dad will be at Grandma B's all weekend. The fam is working on projects at the house for Gram's BD. If you're in town stop by! Mom is just going to be cooking and watching the kiddies.
