Grandma & Grandpa came to celebrate the weekend and Brandon's Farewell with us.
Busy and fun all mixed into one!
Grandma, Nick and Justin had a treading water contest that lasted 2+ hours. Grandpa took them for oreo shakes making it well worth it:)
Mom took LeAnn for a relaxing pedicure. Pages gave us delicious pecans that Mom and Jeff had fun opening. It's always fun when G & G come!!!
Almost 16 years ago we moved to GA....truly a life changing event. Brandon was 2 and Kurtis not yet 1 and we had never lived more than 2 hours from family. 2000 miles seemed forever away and I was struggling. Cheryl, my answer to prayers, kindly approached me at church and invited us over for dinner. Her cute kids Carley and Chase were the same age as my boys and for the next 3 years we were inseparable. Cheryl taught me countless things...how to maneuver ATL traffic, potty training tips, and how to get the boys to swim. We spent hours at playgrounds, the zoo, preschool, holiday/birthday celebrations, parades, Braves games, Brusters and so much more. Cheryl is one of the best examples in my life of service, kindness and love...she is always thinking about others and what she can give or do. Thankfully long distances don't erase memories, and phone calls & texts still share laughter and tears. I will forever be grateful to my dear friend Cheryl and her beautiful family and mom Carol, for the endless things they've done for our family.
So thankful they came to spend this special weekend with us.
Loved visiting, swimming and golf carting together.
