Pie Night

Though it wasn't March 14, we got together as a family this week on Tuesday night for Pie Night. Why? you ask?

Tuesday, the 19th, marked the first anniversary of Mom's passing. Also, the last time many of us saw her before she passed was at a Pie Night held at the rest home where she resided, which was a warm-up to all of the great pies coming up on Thanksgiving Day at that time. Ergo, Pie Night in Mom's honor was a no-brainer.

The pies (including Costco cheesecake, Mom's favorite) were plentiful and delicious:


I caught this pic of our nieces Katy and Sadie rocking around the Christmas tree:


It's honestly wonderful to do things like this to remember beloved family members who have crossed the veil into the Spirit World. For Mom's birthday this past summer, we gathered for ice cream (another favorite of hers) in her memory. For Dad's birthday each year, we have concretes at Nielsen's frozen custard (one of his favorites).

Family and food are always a winning combination.
