Last weekend Buck and I went to Springfield, Missouri to check on his aunt Grace. She had been in the hospital and was moved to a nursing home during the week.
Our trip started out on the "drippy" side
This is Grace in her younger days
This is Grace now. She wasn't happy with her hairbecause she usually wears it "permed"
Since we had to leave from time to time so Grace could rest we went to Bass Pro Shop...the original. Buck looked at boat motors and I looked at everything else.

May Grace R.I.P. she lived a long life and saw many things and could probably tell a lot of stories but now she is at rest and is probably enjoying seeing Granddaddy and Aunt C (I am not going to attempt to spell her name haha). I am so glad I had the chance to meet her and so glad Dad could be with her at the end.
