Sunday morning we headed up to Albert Lea to visit my older brother and his family and my Grandmother on my Dad's side (Only remaining grandparent on my side of the family). Gramma was unable to make it to our wedding, which was sad, but understandable. Hyrum, Shannon and I headed over to the nursing home and woke her up from a nap to show her wedding pictures and the book that we made on iPhoto. She was pretty impressed with the book and was really happy that she got her own copy (although I had to unwrap it for her).

Going through the pictures she seem very happy to see how beautiful the wedding was., Shannon's dress, The decorations that Shannon's mom made (she was quite impressed at how much work Shannon's mom put into it, with the dresses, the decorations and etc). Apparently my older brother had brought one of the stained glass butterfly's to Gramma as well.

When we left, after being there for a little more then an hour and a half. We talked a bit about her condition and Hyrum says that she does sleep a lot and usually when he visits, he usually has to wake her up. She's not making it down to the dinning room for dinner anymore, and sometimes her memory is foggy. But when she does have something to look forward to (like seeing the wedding photos) She does generally remember that.

I know I've said it before, but it is hard to see Grandma that way. But I'm gonna try to make it up to visit more often. Maybe headed up on Sundays to visit when Hyrum goes too...
