This past week has been really crazy! On Tuesday Tyceson's great grandma who is 91 past away in her sleep. His parents went to her house to mow her lawn and found her. She was such an amazing example of strength and perseverance. She was so independent and could get around really well for being 91. She lost her husband about 20 years ago and she has been alone, and I think she was mad at him for making her stay here that long! She past away on September 23, exactly 23 years to the day when her and her husband got sealed in the temple! So touching, and so cute. I know he came to get her, and I bet she hit him and asked what took him so long. But the good thing about her staying here that we were all able to be blessed by her example and love. We were able to get a 5 generation picture with Kennady this summer and I am so glad we were able to do that with her, it will be such a cool thing for Kennady to have. So Ty's moms side of the family is all from California, so they all came up and we got to have a lot of fun with them. We had a big family dinner on Friday night that Andrea and I cooked and it was really fun for everyone. The funeral and stuff was on Saturday. It was really sad, but really good she was ready to go and she lived a good full life and she pretty much had her health with her the whole time. We will miss Grandma Sutherland, but will always remember her and her legacy she left behind.
