A Most Graceful Celebration

This weekend I'm having family in from out of state. We'll be celebrating my Gramma's life. She passed away recently which I wrote about last month. Her name was Grace.

I've been working on a video montage using photos of her throughout her lifetime. We'll all watch and probably cry. We'll be making homemade meatballs and sauce in honor of her as well as passing the tradition on to my neice and nephew, teaching them how to make it.

I can't wait.

I think she would have had a good time at our gathering. And we'll be reminiscing about all the good times we had with her.

I'll be back after the weekend with photos from our celebration.

It is a wonderful idea to celebrate your grandmother's life in this way. Good for you for hosting the event and making the special presentation commemorating her life.

I'm sure she has had a great time with her loved ones this weekend. As long as she is in your hearts she is always here. By the by it looks like she and I'm guessing gramps are beautiful pinkies as well. Enjoy
