Tell we meet again...

This is my sweet Grandpa Hutchings at my sisters graduation party. I think he looks great in this picture! I have always been real close to my Grandmother and Grandfather Hutchings, I am the oldest grandchild and I spent as much time as I could with them! They took me many places and loved me so much! My sweet Grandma pasted 8 and 1/2 year ago. It was way to soon and I miss her every day! I wish she was here to help guide me with her great love and wisdom. My comfort is that I will see them again and they are not suffering any more.
This is a picture of both my Grandma and Grandpa! I will truley miss them! My Grandpa was a strong, funny man. He like antiques and was a great business man. The two of them traveled lots with The Good Sam Club and made many friends. They would go to breakfast every Saturday or Sunday morning with their friends. They built their dream house together and enjoyed every minute of it. My Grandpa also collected old cars and in the last few years he really got into wood working and was amazing at it! Love you both!

October was fun and we did lots of things! We even planted our first tree in our yard. It only took us three hours and a huge digger bar. I can't believe under the layers of huge rock there was clay?! Looking back on October I thought it flew by, but we really did slow it down a little by doing some fun things.
