Yesterday we went to Abby's Nursery to pick out our Christmas tree and to get Mom a Blanket for the cemetery. A grave blanket is placed in front of the head stone and is decorated for Christmas. It's to keep her warm :)
We picked out our tree and then it was time to decide on a blanket. Picture this...John and I out at around 5:30, 30 degrees, dark and very cold ... crying. The only word for this is that it sucked...Mom should be here with us picking out our tree and not us picking out a blanket to place on her grave. But this is what we had to do. There were so many to choose from ... we went with a beautiful, yet simple one. It has a red bow (her fav color), poinsettia flowers and pine cones. It is very nice and we hope you all think so too.
