Grandmother and Brenda's visit








"Our Family tree, each season new life blossoms and grows, benefiting from the strength and experience of those who went before".We had the great privilege of having Grandmother Surratt (Kinamo's mothers mom) and his Aunt Brenda come for a 5 day visit. Grandmother is 93 years old. She is an amazing woman. We have been wanting to spend time with her and allow the kids the opportunity to get to know her. Her and Brenda live in California. This summer Kinamo didn't have a lot of vacation time, so we could drive out to see them. So thankfully they were willing to fly out here to see us. We had an amazing time with them. The kids loved playing with Brenda. She was willing to do whatever they wanted and they loved that. The kids also loved getting to know Grandmother and to feel of her love. One night she shared with us her favorite scripture and why it was her favorite. The spirit was very strong in our home that night. I know the Lord loves her and is proud of the amazing life she had lead. What a legacy she has shared with us.








While they were here we went to the river walk, shopping at a craft store and gave Grandmother her first professional pedicure. We miss them and hope to visit California to see the whole Surratt family soon.
