Ten days after I wrote this post, my beautiful Grandma passed away...
Grandma with my Mom (on the right) & my Aunt Lynny...Don't ya just love the retro kitchen???
Grandma & Grandpa arriving at a picnic at Twin Lakes in the mid 80's...That's my brother Jacob in the foreground...
Typical ♥
Grandma with my little Paven, 2008
It was a beautiful, cool fall day...We had lunch & then graveside services as a family...My Sister sang & Grandma's beloved Pastor Larry sang & played the guitar, then we all sang...It was beautiful...Afterwards, instead of a visitation at the funeral home, we had a Celebration of Life at Bell Ridge Church with music, pie & cookies, coffee & hot apple cider...So many wonderful friends baked the most beautiful pies...It was cozy...It was perfect...Grandma would've loved it...Especially the music, she loved music & was a very talented pianist...I miss her ♥
A few pictures from the day...
My Mama ♥

She was born Emily Joan Jacobs...She married my Grandpa Leo in 1955 in Nashville, TN & became Joan (pronounced Jo-Ann) Jumps...He passed away in August of 2004...These are just a few favorite photos of them...

Such beautiful pictures! I see your mom in your grandma's face and I see you and your girls in the face of your mom as a little girl. And that last picture of your mama....so beautiful, so peaceful. You have a special family, Hil, and your grandma was a great lady. So happy I got to catch up with you the other night. :)
Aw, thank you, Amy ♥ So happy I got to see you, too...I miss you!
