Larkyn and I made a trip to Austin to see my Great Grandma, who spent some time in the hospital over the past couple weeks. Great Great Grandma Bea (to Larkyn) will be 95 in September and one of the biggest warriors I have ever known! She is the rock behind the Sheedy family and has created quite the faithful foundation for all of us. After battling through some tough days and nights in the hospital, Grandma Bea pulled through once again and was transferred to a local nursing home where she continues to get stronger by the day.
While visiting Grandma Bea, we were blessed with the opportunity to see and spend some time with some of our wonderful friends and family that came from all over to check in on her as well. The "parade of love" (all of Gram's visitors) was just what Grandma needed to kick the illness and stay with us for a little longer:).
I met up with my mom and sisters at my godmother's (Beth) house. This is Larkyn with Lauren, Nathan and Peyton.
Peyton loved seeing Larkyn and getting to play with her!
Larkyn and Aunt MaryLarkyn also got to see Aunt Sue and meet Aunt Helen for the first time as well.
Cousin Todd flew in from Virginia. He, and is wife Rachel, are expecting a baby in December!
Larkyn kept gripping on to Grandma's fingers with her toes and Grandma was quite impressed with her happy personality. She also said that Larkyn has quite the belly on her and probably should start dieting:) That is coming from the same woman that once told me Larkyn was lucky to have a "healthy heifer for a mom"! 
Later in the week, we were able to see our cousins Jennifer and Scott as they came through on their quest around the US. 
Cousin Kristina was also back from Portland for a few days too!
