A tradition in the Walker family is that Grandpa Stan gets a RED WHITE and BLUE cake. This has been a tradition his entire living life and it has continued on after his passing. We are staying with Grandma Walker so the girls and I made little brownie cups with red white a blue toppings. We invited Paul over, sang Happy Birthday to Grandpa Stan...ate his brownie cakes and then visited the cemetery. We left Grandpa Stan a red, white and blue brownie and some beautiful flowers!
After our visit to the Pleasant Grove Cemetery we joined the Williams crew at the Purple Turtle for some lunch and the went to the Provo Cemetery to visit Grandpa Williams' grave. The grandkids released balloons for Grandpa and then we sang to Grandpa a song he always sang to us....Sweet Violets!
We miss our Grandpas! I can't believe it has been an entire year since my sweet Dad left this earth!

What a sweet, yet sad, day for you guys. We have a similar situation in our family: on July 3rd four years ago, Becky's mom, Michelle, was killed in a car "accident". One year later (on the 3rd), Becky had her son, Ry'ak. Hope you are going to be here for Randy's reception!
I was just thinking about Uncle Leon and what a wonderful man he was. Its so hard to say goodbye to such wonderful people.
