Some old pics from Mema and Papa’s house

I LOVE old wedding photos!  I found the lost wedding album.  I don’t think the boys ever remember seeing this.  That was a fun find!

What’s that look Byron?!  Cracks me up!

The B-man with crazy curls!

Byron and Jonathan.  Oh the look on Byron’s face….if that is not the look of that age (5-8yrs old) boy, I don’t know what is.  I guess I shouldn’t be so hard on Noah when he makes those crazy faces.  It’s a gene.

Byron’s parents.  So sweet!

This is Byron with Mema and Papa.  How sweet!

This picture of Byron reminds me too much of E.  TROUBLE!

I couldn’t LOVE this one of Byron’s mom more!  I TOTALLY LOVE IT!  I love the original even more even though the color is off.  I know it’s off here too, but not as much as the original.  She just looks so happy and fun.  I miss her and Richard (Byron’s dad) even though I never had a chance to meet them.  They are always in my heart!

OK , so I’m in North Carolina hanging with Byron’s grandparents.  While I’ve been here I’ve been able to clean some stuff out and find some treasures…….PICTURES!  Byron’s parents passed away before I met him so I never had a chance to meet them.  They raised two wonderful men (one being Byron), so I know they were great parents.  I wanted to share some pictures of them since I have not seen too many myself.  It’s nice to get a look into Byron’s past like this.  Hope you enjoy and always remember how important your own picture will be to your family when you are gone.  Make sure you get in a few yourself.

On another note, it looks as if we are bringing Mema and Papa home with us for a while.  I am SO excited and feel very blessed that my boys might have the chance to get to know their Great Grandparents well.  I will probably have to not take as many jobs for a while, but that’s OK.  Time on this earth is short and we need to love them well while we have them.  No, I don’t think this will be an easy job, but I think we will be blessed immeasurably.
