Wills Point trip, 2012
It's been awhile... A long while since I've seen my parents' grave. I usually go during the Summer, so I can swing by Ham's Orchard for peaches and other fruits and veggies that are just scrumptious. Wills Point is a good 70 mile drive from us, and we normally don't travel that far, so it took a bit of planning. The boys insisted on going this time. They hadn't seen the grave since my mother's funeral, so it's been an even longer while for them.
We set out after a snack at Raising Cane's. We drove to Ham's Orchard, had another snack and some amazingly awesome ice cream. They make the best ice cream, if you're ever out on Highway 80. The fudge is also absolutely wonderful per the boys 8). Alright, I had a bite of each type of theirs... 8) We bought a huge box of overripe peaches for me to freeze for just 10 dollars. Their peaches are second to none. Absolutely a-maz-ing.
We went to the cemetery and spent a few moments there. I took some pictures, left some flowers and we talked for a few moments. Tristan said, "I don't know what to do." I explained to do what you felt like and Tristan patted the headstone. Avery knelt down and patted the headstone and said, "We miss you."
It was very good to go and we had some fun as well at Ham's Orchard.
