on sunday we ate breakfast at the hotel and i took j. to explore the house/neighborhood a little more. we wandered around the backyard & swung on the swingset. then we walked down the streets and i told him stories about visiting there as a kid. we semi-joked about living in VA.after lunch all together, we headed to the church for grandmom's service. it was a sweet time to remember her and to love on each other. the reception afterwards lasted a long time, but i treasured the chance to hang out with my family and greet old friends of my grandmom.
we relaxed at the hotel after dinner & the four oldest cousins went to the next-door pub to reminisce and catch up. all in all it was a bittersweet valentines day.
