Take me back...........

The wreath I maded for mother.


Memories My 80 year old father, me, baby brother and baby sister. Dad is losing more and more weight.
He is grieving himself to death. They would have been married 61 years in Oct. Mother was only 78 years young. She was shy two months to her 79 birthday.


This is one of the wreaths that I made for mother grave site. Gosh, How I miss her.



This year my husband and I took a trip to my fathers for my dad's family decoration; decoration is where all the family meets to decorate the graves of their love ones. It is on a Sunday and we have dinner and spend time with all the relatives at the grave site. This has been going on since I was a small girl and longer. This is Cumberland Gap Park, it is about 8 minutes from where my father and mother lived. As you know my mother passed away in March of this year.



I miss her so much as does my father and siblings.


The sun cast shadows on the mountains.



Looking down into the town of Middlesboro Ky.




Scenic area. This wall is new. I had gone there because some 15 years ago my mother and I carved out names in the wood that surround this area and I went back to find her name and it had been replaced with this rock.





So pretty here and peaceful. My mother loved to come up here.




Oops, I don't like to have my photo taken; this slipped in. I was thinking of mother here!
We hadn't taken a picture here years ago and I can't seem to find it.




Beautiful trees and rocks.




Looking down the mountain.





It was a perfect day for Steve and I had to take a hike in the park.





Steve, is a real history nut. He loves anything history; he should have been a teacher.





Another scenic view.

Thank you for stopping by.

4th of July Celebration Sunset Dinner........


Some of our friends stopped over on last Saturday evening to see how our vacation went.
So I ask them to come on over for grill out and I had 15 minutes to get dressed and set this table.
Not bad for a quick rush to get it going. So I took a picture of how it look before the night set in.
Please check out all the other blogger at Between Naps on the Porch by Susan. You will not be disappointed.

Sand in your toes, sun shine, and grandkids.........great recipe for "vacation"

This is what happens after a long day at the beach. Grandpa and Kara where exhausted!
The boys where building race cars in the sand and Kara was modeling for the up coming race car magazine.
Kara, her dad Rob, Nati, Shannon, Chris and Maddie girl on the far right. I certainly have
some princesses in this family.
Shannon and her family.

All six grand kids with grandpa watching a movie waiting for dinner.


This is pretty much what we did all week. We love to sit and listen to the waves and people watch.
We had a blast this year, Jacob lost his glasses in the ocean and David got swimmers ear.
And they all swam back at the beach house in the pool every night.
We enjoy grandpa ice cream night and grandpa putt putt golf night. The girls and I went shopping.
