Jamaica

A few days after my Grandma Deglman passed away we had to make the tough decision to go on our family vacation to Jamaica. For me it was an agonizing decision, but one I am glad I made the way I did. The day of her funeral I appreciated my alone time, and I now know she is glad we went.

We had a great time. It was a relaxing vacation where we did many new things like snorkeling, zip lining and eating healthy at an all-inclusive resort! No major sunburn with full sun all but 1 day of the trip. We enjoyed the countryside and seeing how the native population lives. Made us very grateful for what we have.
Here are some pictures of the trip, we have more posted on Facebook. Enjoy...

Good-bye! See ya next week!

On Monday March 29th 2010 my Thursday Grandma quietly and peacefully passed away. After many rallies of good health she finally just went to sleep. She was 95 and I can truly say I very much enjoyed the last 10 years getting to know her and hang out with her each week. As a kid I was afraid of her stern nature, but once we became friends we were sharing secrets and life's concerns with eachother. I will cherish our relationship forever. I loved our lunches at the Pink Palace and the many laughs we shared. I am grateful for no regrets and cannot wait to see her again. Good-bye for now Gma...
