In Memory of Grandma Great

Grandma Grace Dover Smith Osborne past away last week. She was a wonderful grandma to me and loving Great Grandma to my girls. She was 93 years old and lived a long and meaningful life. We went to Cedar City to celebrate her life and mourn her passing. While we were there I realized that the best thing Grandma ever gave to us was generations and generations of family. I really enjoyed being with cousins, aunts, uncles, neices, nephews and other extended family that we don't get to see very often. I am thankful to my dad and Joanne for coordinating events that helped us play and visit together. It was a memorable time for me.
Cousins: Ryan, Wyatt, Sierra, Zachary, Hunter
My brother Shane and Niece Sadie- he is a great uncle
My nieces Savanna and Kaya- they are so darling together
My girls- Sierra and Ryan
I think this picture was a few minutes before Sierra fell off the monkey bars and landed flat on her face. It was scarey. She scratched up her face quite a bit, her teeth cut up her mouth, but no broken bones! Thank goodness!
Everyone had fun playing a few games of Volleyball at the park. My tall 6'1" cousin Jessie (in the white sweatshirt) went to college on a volleyball scholarship and was very patient as she schooled all the guys during the matches!
