When we all made it back from the funeral on Thursday night, we decided to invite Wynn and Heidi to stay a couple extra days and hang out with us for the weekend. So on Friday we decided to head up to Solitude, a ski resort up the canyon from our house. We had a picnic, and rode the lift up the mountain and hiked around. Then we came back down and Alea & Weston fished in the stocked pond at the resort. It was just a lazy summer afternoon. It was a lot of fun.
Friday night my mom’s side of the family had a birthday party for my late Grandma up at the cabin. It was everyone who was in town (in reality, not alot of people). It was fun to see everyone though. And of course my aunties are a riot–they’re so funny as they tell the stories of their lives.
They told the stories of my Grandma H. & how she was such a neat mom who always bent over backwards for her kids, and was really laid back & easy going, but would always cart her kids around to give them opportunities. I guess I now know where my mom gets it from!
