December 31, 2019 - January 5, 2020
Well, this one has to go back to Monday of this week to tell the whole story. On Monday morning, December 30, 2019, about 8:25am Emma and Lara's Great-Grandmother,
Beverly Pelnar, passed away. While she had been battling heart failure and dementia for years, it was still a tough blow to the family. We quickly planned a graveside service for Thursday, January 2nd at 2:00pm at the Sunset Gardens Memorial. Family and friends joined us to say their final goodbyes.
We played
"When We All Get to Heaven" by Casting Crowns and Chester Wiswell said a few words. After the brief service, several family members gathered at Nana's house in Perkins for fellowship We took a couple of pictures, too (not pictured, Bex Boyd).

But before there was a funeral, there was a celebration as a new year and a new decade dawned. The girls went in different directions, but the pictures tell a story of friends and laughter.

Emma stayed in Stillwater with us off and on this week, and the girls finished out the week looking forward to their final semester in high school and getting ready for their new classes. Hanging out with friends, card games with family, and general relaxing with TV and iPhones. Saturday, they both worked at the Donut shop in Guthrie. And Sunday was another family day. So grateful they will go shopping together, take Jake and/or Finn with them occasionally, and generally brighten our days!
2020 is here. And it is going to be a doozy! So glad I have this project to keep me moving forward! Here's to a GREAT semester!
