George would have turned 65 today…

it snowed all day long… Crystal thought it was his revenge, lol…

this morning the snow had covered the steps and the sidewalk I had cleaned twice last night…

the drive home was slow, but steady… the kids came from two directions… Crystal from her work and Jeff and the boys from home…

family all together… Cyndi and Ron are on the phone in Jeff’s hand…

Cyndi and Ron FaceTimed us… they had burgers from Burger King and little individual apple pies… we had burgers and milkshakes from the Burger Place on Portage, which was George’s favourite…

we ate together and talked about our favourite George story…

apple pie…

Jeff picked up an apple pie from Perkins on the way over and we had that with ice cream for dessert… George did love apple pie…

ice cream and pie getting dished out…

after dinner Tavin found our I Miss You storybook and we read it and talked about how we were feeling…

cleared front yard…

while we read, Jeff was outside snow blowing… and he figured out why my outside tree wasn’t lit…

a number of people have talked about year two being more difficult than year one… today was hard, but also a day of remembering and celebrating my beloved… it was very good to be with my whole family…
