Farewell to Nana

Last Sunday night we had a farewell dinner for Nana who was leaving the next afternoon to spend the week with Dan and Meg. We decided to eat outside while the sun set. We bbq'd steaks, had baked potatoes, corn on the cob, salad and pumpkin pie. It was a beautiful evening. Before Kaleigh left for school she said her goodbyes. (and tried hard to hold back tears)

Shayla showed her love too.
Peyton (Nan's buddy) was VERY upset when we told her Nan was leaving.
I stopped for Pepsi's on the way to Provo and decided to send Nana out in style with a 54 oz!


I know I've said this many times before, but I JUST LOVE AND ADORE MY GRANDMA! She is one of the most special people to me in my life. I truly couldn't stand to lose her. It would break my heart. She is such a great example to me of love and hard work. Since the time I was a little little girl I remember watching her and thinking, "I hope I am like her when I grow up". She is the best Grandma we could ever wish for. We were lucky enough to have her stay with us this time for 11 days and it was awesome! I love and miss her already and cannot wait to see her again. (hopefully soon)

LOL, it took her ALL WEEK to drink that 54oz! I'm not kidding, she kept it by the sink and drank it day by day (of course she wouldn't let us waste it and throw it away). LOL, I love Nan.
