Celebrating Great Gram's Life

We took an unplanned trip to San Antonio this weekend. Doug's Grandmother passed away and it ended up being just a wonderful weekend to celebrate G Gram's life and see family. Doug's Grandmother was so funny. She always had a story to tell. We know she's in heaven right now dancing with Doug's "Bapa" who is one of the neatest men I've ever met. Those two were meant to be together and now they are together again!

This picture is dated but it's the most recent I could find. Here is G Gram with Matt at Easter a couple of years ago. Doug got the call Friday morning and happened to be taking the kids to school that morning. Matt asked his Dad what was wrong and so Doug explained that G Gram went to Heaven. Remember we had just been through the whole heaven explanation with the recent loss of our dog Precious. So Matt kind of understood and said, "Dad I bet Batman took G Gram to heaven in the bat mobile. " Well that was Matt's way of understanding anyway. He thinks Batman helps people and so that was his first thought..that he helped G Gram too.

We had a great time visiting with Doug's family from Chicago. It's so nice to catch up. And I got to meet his cousin's new husband who was SO sweet with all our crazy kids. And I learned that there are some other cousins who read my blog!! YEAH!!! Thank you girls!

Thank you G Gram for all the wonderful stories! You will be missed!
