So the family, such as it is, with Meg and Chris off to the beach on a service mission(yes really), and G-Ma visiting the California faction, headed off to the annual Headstone Cleaning and Photo op.
Here's Maddi teaching McKenna what the headstones were. Good lesson on "The Plan"
We were told in church yesterday to remember those who have gone before. So here is me remembering those who have gone before.
I still miss my sweet Mom and my fun Dad, and my wonderful Father In Law who has been gone 15 years. Hard to believe. Thanks for the memories. We will try to live up to the legacy.
Thanks Marti and Fred for the ebelskivers, etc..... should be the new tradition...Sing it!
Next year, we'll add Meg's pan and I will get one k?
Now let's go watch

Great post! What was that you said about "The booth?" I'm still waiting....
I love that you guys remember your peeps on Memorial Day. Wish we could be there with you.
A few weeks ago I took the girls to the Kaysville cemetary to take pictures of the graves where quite a few of my ancestors are buried.
I thought I should prep Jacie since she hasn't been to a cemetary in a year or two. I said, "Hey Jacie, we are going to the cemetary to take pictures of some of my ancestors graves." To which she responded, "Yay, can we dig them up?" Guess she didn't need prepping.
But seriously now, It gives me a little tickle in my tummy to know your parents are together looking down on their sweet children coming to visit their headstones. We just adore & love Rich's grandparents for raising such wonderful children so you and Parker could have wonderful children and so now Rich & I could have wonderful children.
Miss you guys. I think we are all due a visit with each other. What do ya think?
I agree, it's not too much fun being an orphan. Hey, did you know... Sister OC Moffat gave medical care to a Henry Naegel, a relative of my husbands while he was on his mission in Mexico. He was 23 and a newly married man. She attempted to saved his life after a bear attack.....
Guess that means we are friends from way back..... ♥ ya!
