Family Ties

A few weeks ago, my Great Grandpa passed away. As sad as it was, I know the silver lining in the clouds was that all the family got to see each other again. And I know that Grandpa isn't in pain anymore - as he's up in Heaven with Jesus and Grandma. The funeral was very touching, or so I am told. I was out in the lobby with Aunt Kathy. But here are some photos of me with various family members... My Uncle Eric! He flew in town, and it was only the second time I had ever met him, and I don't really remember the first time since I was only a few weeks old...

My sister doesn't like Uncle Eric, but I am fine with that, because it meant he held me more!

I had to post this photo to prove that I actually wore shoes. You see, I never wear shoes. At least yet. But it's like my parents suddenly remembered I own shoes. And I have these sweet tennis shoes, and this trip is the first and last time I am able to wear them since they are pretty much too small already.

Here's my Mom and Uncle Eric. I'm not sure I am posting this photo - I'm not in it! Guess I want to show off my Uncle Eric some more...

Here's another photo I am not in - but I liked it nonetheless. This was at the graveside service for Grandpa, and my cousins Wes and Jordan (who are twins!) were walking on the fence and I told my mom to take a photo...
