Geneal's funeral.

over the weekend i spent a lot of time with family for a very sad reason.. my Aunt Geneal's funeral/viewing.

however, it was also a blessing in disguise as i got to see the majority of my family (except my sis in law, niece & nephew who i missed VERY MUCH!). this little kid... i am so sad he is growing up so many miles away from me! he is at such a fun age.. & was perfectly content being passed around from aunt to aunt, grandma to grandpa.. 4 aunts is a lot of holding, kisses & cuddles but preston boy sure is ok with it! he's a peach.

here's a few photos from the weekend:

luke & preston unintentionally matched in their argyle sweaters. i couldn't handle the cuteness. CUTENESS OVERLOAD!

my studly papa saying goodbye in the snow.

another one of my dad, doing one of my favorite things about him: entertaining little ones & making them laugh.

if you haven't seen him with little kids before, it's the cutest. he is so good with them!

me with about 1/343829 of my cousins... girl power.

L2R: julianna, kathryn, me, liz, baily, taylor, norda & jessi.

baily's hair is amazing isn't it? i wish mine was that red sometimes.

all in all it was a good weekend with family, reminiscing over our favorite aunt. she truly was a beautiful soul.
