Montana June 2015 Part 2 - Grandma's Funeral

Grandma's Funeral was on Friday, June 12th at 11 am.  We saw her in the casket and she looked very beautiful like Grandma to me and peaceful. The funeral was very nice, Mom did a great job of the Eulogy and  Uncle Robert's talk was great as well. After the Funeral we had the luncheon and the boys wandered off and found a baby raccoon hiding by the church. I meet some people that my mom and dad grew up with and heard some fun stories as well as Grandpa singing. That was nice!

At 3 pm we went to the Graveside service and it was nice. The boys of course jumped on all the headstones (sorry dead people) and Uncle Hy dedicated the gravesite and pictures were taken and goodbyes were said. You were always so nice to us and helpful. You always wanted to talk to us and find out what was going on in our lives.You made the BEST Chipped Beef and Toast and I always craved it for months after we would leave Montana. We didn't spend much time with you because we lived in different states, but I loved the time we did spend together and I'm sorry I didn't get to see you before you passed, I was trying to make it up for the July Reunion to see you. Until we meet again, Grandma!

Roommate Reunion

On the 15th of August, one of my Roommates from Southern Utah University came into town from Texas with her hubby & baby & we all got together to catch up. They came out here & we ate some dinner & played some MarioKart on the Wii. We also got to spend some time with Mariann, her sweet baby girl, born just 1 month after Gavin. We hope to do it again Lexi! It was great to get together with you & catch up!

Farnsworth Family Reunion

This weekend, we went to Alimony, UT (In central Utah, middle of nowhere) for the Farnsworth Family reunion (My Dad's, dad's family reunion - My Grandpa!)

We got off work early on Friday & drove the 2 & 1/2 hours to get there. We got there about 6:45pm & when we got there it was time for dindin. We said hi to family & ate. After dinner, I had to go out to my parents car to learn the song my Grandma wanted us to sing - Grandma Can I Take Something Home! I learned it in about 20 minutes & Wendy (my sissy) & I decided we could sing it together - A Capella. We did pretty good. We had a little program that night with us singing & my aunts reading poems & some games with prizes...All in all, it was a great night.

Wendy & I singing!

After dinner, the program & pictures were taken Jason (My little brother) & I went to bed, we were both really exhausted! Everyone else went to watch a movie or play pool.

Saturday was a jam packed day. We woke up, ate breakfast then went off to Bow & arrow shooting. That was fun. After Lunch we went horseback riding & Tubing. After that, they had a rodeo that my brother Ben participated in. It was fun to watch. They also had a Line Dancing Class. After that was dinner. After dinner, they had a live band & everyone got up to dance. It was fun.

Wendy & Jason Line Dancing

My Grandma Dancing with Will - An employee who hit on ALL the Women!

After the band was done, we went upstairs to watch a movie that my brother brought with him. During the movie, there was a Bat that had flown into the room through an open Door. My cousin hit him with a couch cushion into the wall, then Ben picked him up with Magazines & took him outside. It was kind of a tramatic experience. Wendy & I were screaming! It was kinda funny though. About half was through the movie, Wendy & I decided we were tired, so we went to bed.

Sunday we woke up, ate breakfast & packed up to leave. We had to be out of there at 10am. We drove home, picked up Bear & had a nice relaxing day at home. Jason came home with us for the day because My momma & daddy are taking Wendy to Idaho for College. So he wanted to spent sometime with us instead of going up with them & being bored! It was a great weekend. Thanks Grandma Farnsworth for putting this on for us & giving us a weekend we will treasure forever!

We have some NEWS in the next coming weeks that we found out this weekend as well, we just want to make sure everything pans out before we tell everyone, so keep your fingers crossed for us that it will work out for the best for us!

And remember, I still need some ideas for a Baby shower, if you have any games, please let me know!
