Grandma

My Grandma passed away last Tuesday. It was a hard time for us as family and friends gathered to remember her. Here are some of the fun memories I have about my Grandma...

When I was little Billy and I would run to our rooms to clean them everytime Grandma drove up. We knew that she would check on how clean our room were so we wanted to make sure they were up to standard!

Grandma got me a dog for one of my birthdays even though my mom was very against the idea (unfortunately, the dog didn't get to stay around for long...) It was my favorite birthday present ever though!

When I was in college Grandma used to make me these really great care packages that included all of my favorites; a jar of olives, smoked oysters and crackers, and candy! I could eat for a week from those packages.

Grandma has made me tons blankets, pillows, and other craft items that I have around my house. It's fun to look at them and see how much she thought about us grandkids as she made them.

Grandma LOVED Barry. Everytime I would see her she would ask me "where's my Barry?".

Grandma was really excited about our little baby on the way. We found a little baby outfit in her house that she had bought to give to him. That will be a special outfit for him when he gets to wear it!
