Roots

Along the way to blueberry picking, we stopped in Bellevue.  The kiddos were able to see where Granddad spent his childhood.  We visited his childhood home, and Heather shared stories about her grandmother and spending time with her.  She told them that she remembered the house painted white with green trim, bushes by the front porch that would scratch your arms and legs when you climbed over the railing, the gravel driveway, and the sliding garage door.

We also took a trip to the cemetary where Great Grandma and Grandpa are buried.  Aine and Benton collected flowers to put by the gravesite.  They found many dandelions and were pleased with the result.
