Memorial Day

It has always been tradition in my family to go and decorate the graves of our ancestors on Memorial Day.  I remember going with my Grandma and Grandpa Culley each year to Tooele to decorate the graves of their parents, grandparents, siblings and aunt.  Now we visit the graves of them and our other grandparents.  On our drive to the cemeteries, we read in family books stories about the people of whom we are visiting.  We have come to enjoy this tradition with our kids very much.

Grandma and Grandpa Haacke

 

Kayden drew his Great Grandpa Haacke a picture of a baseball helmet.  Grandpa played and loved baseball.  He was also the first known person to invent and wear a baseball helmet and is in the Baseball Hall of Fame.

Sadly we added a new grave to visit this year.  Our sweet baby nephew and cousin Jimmer. 

We didn't make it up to Kaysville to see Grandma and Grandpa Timothy this year but love and honor them all the same.
