Here are some photos from a day at the cemetery...weird...maybe...Ian loves them. My grandmother used to take me to this one all them time..she passed in January while I was in England and I wasn't able to attend the funeral..which is not what I had even expected, but being pregnant I couldn't just fly back and forth. I finally decided to go see her tombstone next to my grandpas...
This was one of the cool tombstones that Ian loved...even one of them has a story and I knew so many of them from my grandma and grandpa....
Warning...Don't drink Coke...that is what this should say!! I used to freak out because this boy died from drinking too much Coke while his parents were out to dinner...they usually never had soda at home, but his mom got it for a party they wer having the following night. The real story is...diabetic and couldn't take in the sugar so he want into a coma and died after drinking lots of bottles...but what a way to make a kid not want to drink Coke ever again!! I have told this one to him before so he was happy to finally see the tombstone...even had his photo.
This is my grandparents tombstone...my brother is next to them, but I wasn't going to post all the photos...it would have taken forever...we had a great time. Ian kept walking around wondering about the great grandpa he never met and about the uncle he never met...he asked soooo many questions...it was one of those days I will always remember or at least I will know that I am blogging. Who needs Wii or Xbox when you have a cemetery.

Not sure how I feel about your cemetary field trip...actually it is great for Ian to learn about his relatives. I love that Jade is so high maintenence. It is how a girl should be!
So glad that everyone is feeling better! I'm with Stacey on not knowing how to take the cemetery field trip -- but it is good for Ian to learn all he can about your family. Hope to see you soon!!!
