GG's service

Coffee and breakfast started the bustling day. Everyone was ready to go and off to GG's funeral service around 10:30. It was another lovely service including mass followed by the final farewell at teh cemetery. The sun was shining bright on all the family surrounding her as we all said goodbye. I counted 47 grand, great grands and great greats in GG's tree and out of them there was only Chantelle & family, Teren and Riley missing. What a great tribute to her and very full family tree she leaves with many memories.

The luncheon after and family time back at Grama & Papa's had many more reminiscences of her long and full life. We were all very lucky to have you as our GG! More food was had before we loaded the troops back up along with Candace, stopping quickly at her house for a load of bison. Tims and fuel and it was time to hit the road west.

dang.. focus off and such a great picture ;( luckily the rest were in focus



We were back to Strathmore at 7:30 where the girls took the bison on to the city for a fellow to pick up and we went to the ranch. Matt was just ahead of us in our yard for his World Series date with Sheldon who had been listening to it via the radio on way home. They headed quickly to the TV room while Britt packed up and was headed to Olds. Me, well I got to enjoy relaxing finally catching up on 4 episodes of This Is Us on the PVR until 11:30 when the boys finally closed down celebrating the Cubs 108 years since last win win.

I forgot to share Sheldon's Flames game photo from last week, this was his view.. not to shabby heh?
