dad's cows have been sold, the guy who bought them is leaving them on the farm and leasing it.....

so it will be like dad is still there, just 'out' checking the cows or 'late' at work when I stop by.....not like he's never coming back.
Today at work I was thinking about if dad could contact me via Teresa The Long Island Medium....I started crying.

Uncle Frank & Aunt Mae Brown's wedding picture...

Thanksgiving at Koren & Codys.....

she is always a gracious hostess and sets a beautiful table with her matching dishes....and she inherited Grandma Grace & Grandma Janet's cooking abilities......
Cody & Koren hosted Deb, Kevin, KJ, & Katie, Katie's boyfriend Chase, Brenda, Kerry, Grandma Janet, and Ed & Norma. somehow didn't get a picture of Ed, Norma, or Cody.....I am slipping!
it was weird not having Grandpa Bernard at the head of the table...

Martin Cemetery

today Katie & I pulled into the cemetery on the way home so I could take a picture of the stone my great grandparents purchased. My great grandfather Johnnie was originally buried here, but after Great Grandma Daisy moved to California, she had Grandpa moved out there. They gave the plot to my parents, but they have opted for cremation. This is a quiet little cemetery right off Highway 65, up on the hill. We had a picnic while we were there with our McDonalds takeout, I shared with Katie how I think I read how people in the old days would have a picnic in the cemetery on Decoration Day, then decorate their graves.
