    The park reservation has officially been made! August 31, 11am-2pm. Grandma's passing has been difficult but even in the dark times there is light and her light has created a long overdue family reunion. I can't wait to see everyone and celebrate grandma's life.

    Thank you to Glenda for contributing $1200 towards the celebration! Slate tile has been ordered and once I get the proof I will post a photo here. I will be able to make the park reservation on July 6 and will post an update then.
