Grandma Gravy's Visit

Just before Thanksgiving we had a wonderful visit from my Grandma Brady. She has planned to come visit us since we moved to Kentucky and it all finally worked out! She came the weekend of the Transylvania Singers concert, so she was here to watch me conduct the women's choir. That meant so much to me. A singer herself, she has always been a big supporter of my musical aspirations, so it was a joy to bring things full-circle by having her attend this concert.
McKay and Benson loved having her here too. The day before she came, I was telling McKay that Grandma Brady was coming for a visit. He was very excited and spent the rest of the day asking when "Grandma Gravy" was going to arrive.

While she was here, we celebrated her 84th birthday! We had a nice dinner at home and carrot cake, one of her favorite desserts. Then BJ watched the kids so that she and I could go and watch the new Harry Potter movie. It was great!

We were so delighted to have Grandma be able to come and visit us. We're grateful she's still strong and able to travel and be a part of our lives. We loved having her stay and will always be grateful for the memories of her with us here in our home. Love you Grandma Gravy!
