Memories of Christmas

December 22 is my Pappy's birthday. He passed away 3 months before our wedding (10 years ago). He was so excited that I was getting married and he came to visit me before our wedding. My mom and I took him to the bridal shop where I bought my dress and they let me try it on for him. He took several pictures of me in the dress. Those pictures were priceless after he passed away and I found them.

Growing up my family would always travel to Cincinnati, OH for Christmas. I enjoyed driving up to Granny and Pappy's house and seeing the blue lights that he would display with the white candles in the windows. So in honor of my Pappy, Mike and I decided to put outside lights up and Mike did a great job. I love seeing them every night.

I look forward to seeing him again one day in heaven. Happy Birthday Pappy!
