hey everyone,
I know it’s been awhile. things around here have been pretty busy. if by chance i don’t make an entry in awhile be sure to check our wedding for updates there.
this past weekend has been a sad and busy one. friday night around 1030 or 11 justin received a phone call from stacey that his great grandmother had a stroke while at a restaurant. we decided to go ahead and drive to mission to see her. we arrived at the hospital somewhere around 130 or so ( i think) and waited through the night to hear any news the doctor could give. things didn’t change much overnight. the doctor didn’t give much hope. we decided to head on out somewhere around 3 or 4 to go home. we went to church and worked in the nursery sunday night. then around 11 or so justin heard the terrible news of his great grandmother’s passing. all i wished for at that moment was for me to take all his pain away. i felt so helpless and i just wanted to make things better.
on monday we found ourselves at the visitation in asheville. there were so many people there and the flowers were so beautiful. it was amazing to see all the lives she had touched. i know she will truly be missed!
tuesday was the day of the funeral. people gathered from all over. i haven’t seen so much food in quite awhile. the service was so beautiful! i know it touched me in a way i cannot explain. i know she loved/loves everyone so much! and will be watching over them in the best seat in the house!
have a great day! and tell someone you care about that you love them 🙂
