Grandmom Baskin

So I've been a horrible blogger lately, and I'm going to totally blame it on the holidays and babies! ;) I will eventually finish posting pictures from their last month, but first I want to say that over Thanksgiving heaven welcomed another angel home. Rush's grandmom Lowrey Baskin passed away early Friday morning at the age of 92. I've only known Lowrey for a few years, but I know that I am going to miss her very much. She had such a strong presence, and was the matriarch of the Baskin family. She had such a sharp memory I know there were many times that I was amazed at the stories she told us from "way back when" when I have trouble remembering what I ate yesterday! She was a kind hearted woman who welcomed everyone into her home. I enjoyed hearing all the stories of her this past weekend when visitors would come by the house with their condolences and food. She made such an impact on so many lives, and was never late at sending out a thank you note! There is much I can STILL learn from her, and I am glad that we were able to see her on Wednesday (I should say that I was glad she was able to see the girls!) We will cherish the pictures we have of her with the girls. :)

This was the first time Grandmom met the girls (3 and a half months old), I didn't do a very good job of making her stop playing with the girls to look up for the picture...
I believe this is Reagan, love those smiles!
 The girls are 6 and a half months old here.
 Not sure who's happiest, Grandmom or Reagan!
I thought this picture was hilarious! Rush was holding Addie while Grandmom had Reagan.

Rest in peace Grandmom, you will be greatly missed by all of us!
