Lynda's Garden

 
Electra and I had a great time taking pictures together. These are all from Aunt Lynda's yard. She loved her flowers.

Family

 
I managed to get everyone to take a picture before anyone left. Steve was sleeping and no one was willing to wake him up, so he isn't in the picture, sorry Steve!!! Great picture, but too many family members are still missing, so we are going to have to try again at the reunion!

It has been a long three days. It is three days that was written in destiny five and a half years ago when the stongest woman I knew was diagnosed with lung cancer. She did all she could to fight cancer and remained with her family longer than the doctors told her she should have. Her battles changed, she stayed strong. During her journey, I reconnected with her and was able to see her again. She met my husband and children and with that created memories I will cherish forever.
I think she had her own bucket list and she wasn't about to say good bye until it was done and done her way. Bringing most of her family together, one more time, filling her home, the home that she built with love; she passed away at dawn with her husbands hand in hers.
With Grace, Strength, Love, and Amazing beauty she has gone to a better place. I will miss you. I thank you for all you have taught me and all you have given me.

All the kids with Thomas

 

THOMAS!!!!

 
What a happy little boy! A Day Out With Thomas came to Chattanooga and we got to ride. We were sad that Ginger and her girls were not with us, but the tickets didn't go to waste. A friend of ours and her two little ones came with us. They enjoyed the trip. The weather was pretty crummy, cold and rainy, but Thomas didn't mind and took us for a ride anyway. :)

A day for my boy

 
I love his silly smile.

Yep, she likes it. . .
