Great Grandpa

This has no news value for anyone but people in our family, which is a good enough reason for me to post it.

So many people wouldn't think to take photos at a funeral but I truly believe that we celebrate our lives together...all the good and all the bad. The truth is, on Thursday, we got together to celebrate Grandpa's life and everything he gave us. Even though it was sad, it was a chance for us to rejoice in all he gave us and to remember what a good person he was.


Jim and I went to visit Great Grandma and Grandpa in October on our way home. Grandpa and Jim talked the whole time about the Cubbies and discussing how far they really would get:).

Here is Grandpa Huckaba putting bunny ears on Great Grandma- he looks like he wouldn't cause trouble but you never know with him.

This is a pretty cool picture of mom and the two Great Grandmas. How lucky we are to have had so many grandparents in our life for so long....most people never get that chance.
