Last Friday (9/6/13), my grandma passed away. She hadn't been sick, and as a matter of fact, we were up there for a visit a month ago and she was playing with and holding my kids. It makes me sad to think that another family member is no longer here and my kids will be without an extended family, but I know she'll always been watching us from Heaven.
Just some fun facts:
Teagan was born so early and spent a few weeks in the NICU and I spent the entire time up there with her and stayed at my Grandma's house.
When Teagan was healthy enough to come home, she spent her very first night at my Grandma's house as well before making the trip home.
My Grandma made the best french toast and peach cobbler and had no problem spoiling me (and later my kids) when we visited.
The last time I went for a visit, she was so excited to see Brennen and kept saying how happy my kids were.
When she use to visit us when I was small, she would sleep in my bed with me and we would "tell secrets" and make my mom jealous. :)
These things make me happy to remember. I made a point to always go up and visit once she got too "old" to drive down here. (She didn't like to sit too long in the car). And we would go up at least twice a year.
