Grandaddy's funeral in AZ
Jimmy in a box( this represents that we moved, also, recently I have used boxes as playpens for him when I go outside, now before you think I'm horrible, he likes it and then I know he won't eat dirt)
It's been so long! My last post was a month ago and I could have posted something for every one of those days because life has been very eventful. We moved Aug 1st. I went very well thanks to the help of many good friends and family. My little sis, in particular, stayed here after my fam went back to AZ. She helped me pack and clean and take care of babies and move and unpack and clean and then pack up for a trip to AZ. Dan had just started a new position and couldn't leave so my sister and I took the boys to my families annual campout. The 20th was our four year anniversary and Daniel surprised me with flowers. I wasn't home when they were delivered so when I found them I wasn't sure who remembered our anniversary. What a nerd I can be! Then I read the card. My sweet husband! We went and did sealings which is always special. That same day my Grandad died. We went down the next day. We left at 4 in the morning thinking that the kids would just sleep. Well, James did. Spencer was so excited he was wide awake until about 7. It was such a wonderful trip. He lived in Eager, Arizona. I love that place. So many good smells and memories. All of my dad's side of the family was there and it was a really good thing.
