Memorial Day

This year Hayden wanted to honor Brian's dad, PawPaw, and visit his grave site. He chose out a wreath and both kids drew pictures to leave there for him. Hayden hasn't been there before (neither has Lauren, but she didn't really know what was going on) and had been asking questions.


Lauren picked some flowers for PawPaw.

Placing his wreath for PawPaw at the bottom of the grave.

Only our kids...one cheesing hard and the other thinks he is as tough as nails.

PawPaw would have loved this pretty girl...and I bet she would have had him wrapped around her finger!
Checking out how the grave stone and flowers work.
She wanted to touch too!
Their wreath and pictures. Hayden's picture is a flag and a tank. Lauren's is a two year old's scribbles.

He had to give PawPaw a hug before we left. He wanted to know if we thought PawPaw got his hug. Brian assured him that he did.

Leaving her flowers for her grandpa.

Trying on Daddy's hat...Little Trooper Girl!
