Grandpa Carter's Funeral

 It  has been a hard week. On Thursday of last week I received a phone call from my Dad letting me know that my grandpa has passed away Wednesday evening in the hospital. He had been sick for awhile, but it never seemed like he was sick enough to die. We traveled up to Utah on Saturday morning. The viewing was on Sunday night. Our kids were nightmares, running around everywhere and being wild. Hagen wouldn't look at the casket but Ainsley ran right up to my grandpa and touched his hand. Then she went back to Hagen telling his that she touched his hand. She is such a little stinker sometimes. It was good to see family and be around them again. It has been about two years since I have seen some of my cousins. On Monday morning we got ready and attended the funeral services. This was harder to attend than the viewing. I cried a lot when they were talking about the kind of person he was. He will be missed dearly. My Granny and Dad are holding up, even though they are both very sad. We will see how everyone is doing when we go back up there this summer.

This melted my heart - Hagen took off his corsage and put it on the casket.
