Memorial Day



Every Memorial Day we visit my grandparent's grave. The visit usually isn't very long, but I am reminded of how much love and respect I still feel for these two people who had a profound influence on my life. I love you Grandma and Grandpa Van and can't wait to see you again!

we ARE very grateful for the mattress and honestly..i don't know what it is cuz i don't think it's an uncomfortable mattress, but for some reason both ryan and i toss and turn and can't sleep..maybe we just need that pillow-top thing you guys used?
