Sadness & Joy...

Charlie's grandmother, lovingly called MiMommy by the family, passed away yesterday. She had a heart attack a couple of weeks ago and has been fighting in the hospital ever since. She was a proud, wonderful and loving woman and I am honored to have known her for the time that I did. We had an instant bond from the minute we met, as MiMommy was a sister of mine, a Zeta Tau Alpha. Audrey was able to meet her last October when we made a trip down to Memphis to visit, and that trip will never be forgotten. And neither will she, we love you MiMommy!


As this sadness happens, there is reason for great joy and celebration as well. Charlie's sister, Karen, is getting married next Saturday! Audrey and I are headed down to Orlando in a couple of hours for the week for the festivities. We are hopefully going to hang out by the pool, spend some quality time with both Grandma's, go to Magic Kingdom, and so much else. There will be plenty of pix and commentary when I get back, don't you all worry... Btw, in case you were wondering, I'm dreading the 3 hour flight, alone, with a 14 month old that can't sit still, ugh...
