death and the funeral

so my grand father died last saturday, and his burial and memorial service were today. im his fifth granddaughter, and the last to recieve a cedar chest from him.

its nice seeing all the family again. i havent been here in eight years. thats a long time. every thing is so much smaller than i remember. but the swing is still there. i loved that swing. even hitting the tree it was attatched to. it was all part of the childhood building experience.

ill write more later. right now i want to hang with my cousins
