For Memorial Day this year we were lucky enough to visit the resting sites of both sides of our family. We made the trip to Hyrum on the Saturday before like normal and met Joe and Bonnie, Wes' family, Mom, LaWayne, and Jamie's family. It is always so fun to hear stories about my grandparents and great grandparents. We are finding it really important to remember those who came before us at this time in our lives. We want to learn from them and make them proud of how we are living today. I hope we can pass to our children how important eternal families are.
We have started taking a family picture every year up in Hyrum so here is this years masterpiece.
Trying to entertain 2 year olds while we waited for everyone to get there.
My Jones grandparents.
On Monday we went out with Cass' parents to Springville, and Provo to see his grandparents and great grandparents. Here is his mom's parents.
And his dad's parents. Showing Alden with who he was named after.
This is Alden in Provo. I love his expression and his hands in his pockets in this picture.
We truly loved spending the weekend with so much family remembering other family members that some of us never met. I hope are living families know how much we love them as well as our ancestors.
