Grandma

Today I got to hear my wonderful Grandma speak in church.
She gave the most beautiful, eloquent talk about her life and her journey to the Temple.
There are a lot of things I like about my Grandma.
She is funny, and smart and hip - and she has an incredible sense of adventure.
A few years ago, she took us on an adventure to Nauvoo, Illinois. TWENTY TWO of us got on a plane and flew 1100 miles across the country and it was AWESOME.

I don't know which demonstrates her sense of adventure better - the fact that she would tackle a cross-country trip with 22 relatives, or the fact that she would want to be permantly related to us.
 She is a brave, brave woman
So, to honor her and the topic of the day, I've posted a few photos from that trip...
