Grandma Glo

Grandma Glo passed away about a week ago and she will be so missed. Her funeral was full of stories about her happy fun demeanor and what a loving mother, friend, wife and grandmother she was!  Molly and my cousin Carly both wrote some great posts about her.  Molly wrote a list of her fav Glo qualities, I copied a few of mine too:

• She thought every girl should always have a pair of red shoes and red lipstick
• She put my name on the prayer roll every week
• She made Christmas and Easter magical...really all holidays.
• She put flowers in the toilet during parties
• She could feel comfortable in any crowd
• She often ate Cummings dark chocolates for dinner
• She loved the hot dogs at Hire's
•  All my friends knew her and I knew all her friends
• She loved to shop.  I have wonderful memories going to ZCMI or Nordstrom with her and then to the Tiffin Room for lunch (When my mom cleaned out her purse she still had her Nordstrom card in it, but I would help her get things when i worked there...a lot..so much that i still have her card number memorized. :))
• Every time we left her home, she stood on the porch and waved, blowing kisses until we were out of her cul de sac.  

Glo with her 4 best friends... (best friends her whole life)

 

Her funeral...

 

A bit from Molly's Talk...

"Somewhere along the way Gloria became Glo, and later Grandma Glo. Glo was a

wonderful friend and loved to entertain. She often said “Make every day a holiday and

every night a family night!” and she did. She always belonged to a Bridge club (or two).

Her journals are filled with the stories of her life with wonderful and caring friends. She

was close to all of our friends and us to hers. She loved to cook; if the party was for ten,

she cooked for fifty. She had the gift of being easy to talk to, welcoming to every one

that came in her home, and bringing spunk and fun to any party."

Trips to Trips

Two weeks ago I went to Miami. Two weekends ago I went to Woodstock. One week ago I went to Montauk. And one weekend ago I went to the local beach.  

Miami with Self Mag, which means shooting on the beach, in a swimsuit, and beach time in between shots.. pretty fun.

And Clark came down for a quick visit!

 Woodstock was for Clark's friend Bret's wedding...it was cold and I fit in by buying some Birkenstocks.  

And Montauk, with Self again, was a repeat of Miami, but not quite as warm and locals with more clothes on.

We stayed at the Surf Lodge, which is everything I want in a future home.

 And then Long Beach was for a Memorial Day Activity. It was ghetto.

But at least now I have my summer tan back!

Oh! But I missed this.  Sooooo depressing.

Tulips for Mother's Day

My mom always loves tulips on Mother's Day. Clark drew this cute drawing and also bought me some tulips this weekend!

8 Kids

My mom just posted this picture of all the kids. it makes me laugh, i love Rex's bored smile, Ollie's smushed giggle, lucy and tenleys "im very pretty" looks, ashton's wide eyed confusion, cuddly ike's hug, nellie's uncomfortableness (due to lucy and tenley's prettiness) and molly june's goofy smile that is directed at macy im assuming.

they are all too cute. i miss them.

Merry Christmas

Hope you had a Merry Christmas!
