Pa. Pics

This is the last of the Pa. pics. I wanted to share the awesome view you get while your there. I miss just seeing trees around and not just flat ground. You really don't miss it and realize how beautiful it is until you don't see it that often. I wanted to start a tradition w/Olivia like my grandparents did with me. Every Memorial Day we religiously went and planted flowers on all the graves. We never missed that holiday. I started a couple yrs. ago with her and she asks all the time when we pass a cemetery. We didn't make it back for Memorial Day this year so I made sure we had something to plant while we were there. We put them on the grandparents and my Aunt Maggie's. I got a lot more "involved" questions this year about the whole thing and sometimes it's hard to answer without being too morbid for a 6yr. old, but we managed. I hope this is something that will stick with her like it did with me.
