How am i suppose to blog when I have like 20 blogs to read and catch up with?!?!?!?!?
We had a blast seeing all of my family. The ceremony was wonderful. I watched my daughter walk down the isle in her flower dress. She was so pretty! Then my grandpa walked down the isle and meet my grandma with a single rose. Then they renewed their vows. Me and one of my cousins read a poem about their life. Then all of the grandchildren and great grandchildren came up to sing some of my grandparents favorite songs. Then we went to the reception. Then family had purchased my grandpa a new motorcycle. He was tickled pink when he say that. My grandpa is a pastor even thought he doesn't have his own church any more. He has loved to ride motorcycles since I was a baby. He rides his motorcycle in a full suit. That is how I remember my grandpa. He loves to talk to people, he loved it when I played the piano, and we loved to watch movies together. A lot of the qualities that you see in my came from these folks.
I started think about it and asked my grandma. Did you even think that you and your kids would turn in to all of this. She had four girls. Those four girls birth 16 grandchildren with five step children. When you add in the in-laws this adds 8 more. So then you have a total of 29 grandchildren currently. Other will comes as they start to get married. Then they have 11 great grandchildren and two more on the way. All of this from four children. That is how the generations carry on. She just looked at me and said that she never though that this would happen. As a parent we get so wrapped up in getting our children raised. We don't realize that generations of children will follow.
All of this might be useless rambling to you but it was a great honor to see all my family. I think that they have a great heritage that they have started and will continue through many generations. I hope that one day I will be able to look at my children, their children, and hopefully their children and see everything turned out as God wanted it to. Please God help me to carry on the heritage that they started.
Have to write more later due to screaming children!
