Granby Weekend - January 2010

We had a great weekend spending time with friends in Granby, CO.  The kids enjoyed themselves sledding, tubing, and a little kid size snowmobiling.  The house was gorgeous and well into the millions.  Each bedroom had these adorable little fireplaces.  It was off the Granby Lake - it will be nice to go back and do some fishing at some point.  We cooked, watched football, played cards, and games.  The last evening was spent in town bowling.  The place only had about 10 lanes and you had to do your own scores - felt like the old days..:)  I'm the one next to David sticking out her tongue..HA.  A definite must to go back and visit.  We even got to see a moose and take some pictures.

HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM OUR FAMILY TO YOURS!

RIP: Uncle John Gross

My dad's older brother, John Gross passed away recently.  It's nice to know that we will have another angel to watch over our families.  Uncle John, the age of 83 joins his wife, Joan, and son, Michael.  He leaves behind, his two daughters, Maureen, Rosemary, and son Brian. 

It's not very often that you get to witness a loving connection between two brothers.  But, I have to say this was definitely the case for my pop and his brother, John.  While Uncle John lived in NY, and pop lived in SC, the distance between them didn't seem to alter their relationship.  They did their best in keeping in touch and remaining brothers til the end.  It's unfortunate that distance, and time removes us from family ties.

May you be at peace Uncle John.  Remember, to keep the beer cold for my pop..;)

Love those glasses Grandma!
