The Three Amigos
After a long battle with cancer, Andrew’s father passed away last Monday. And though we had all tried to prepare ourselves for the inevitable, it was understandably difficult to say good-bye when the time came. In spite of the sadness of Bub being gone, we did our best to celebrate his life, telling stories and sharing memories, both good and bad, but all funny in their own ways. The cousins took advantage of being all together and had a great time playing, blowing bubbles, and making each other cry. Then Milo came down with a terrible fever/virus on day two that he is still fighting off five days later, and that he unfortunately passed on to Baby Casey. I stayed back with Milo from two of the social events in the hopes that he wouldn’t get anyone else’s kids sick, but what can you do? We were already there when the nastiness came on.
It was great to see everyone (except Annie, back in Cincinnati having just given birth to little Liam) despite the circumstances, and the weather was beautiful. So enjoy the pictures and videos. Bub definitely would have loved seeing his grandkids having so much fun.

Baby Casey- what a handsome little guy!
We hope to be back to visit Gerlyn and Andrea before too long… we miss you both already!
