My Grandpa!


Us over the Christmas Holiday's

Cherished memories

My dad and papa

I love this man so much! He was diagnosed with stomach cancer almost two years ago. The doctors did not give him long to live for several factors. Today he is still married to his beautiful wife of over 60 years. =)

At his first appointment to start his chemo he told the doctors quote " Now i just want you to know I understand that you are my doctor and will do whatever it takes to help me, but I need you to know that my Lord Jesus he is my first doctor and is able to heal me in the blink of an eye." I wonder how the doctors responded to that?!? What a man of faith! He has been through more in his life than I could possibly share in this post but through every season one thing has remained constant in his life his love and dedication to our God.

 Every time Jared's monthly clean-up rolls around I take that opportunity to go down to Mississippi and spend an evening with them talking, taking pictures and catching up, and letting the kids play with their grandparents. He means so much to me and he is without a shadow of a doubt ready to enter into those mansions prepared for him before the ages began. Him and Maw Maw are such godly examples to how I want my life to be lived out towards my spouse, kids, neighbors, and strangers.

Written with much love towards 2 people I adore!
