October 2008

Poppy and Grandmama came for Ben's birthday and Poppy and  I got to go to a Badger's basketball game to watch Ben be a ball boy.  Ben got to be on the court, sit at the base of the hoop, and then during timeouts, he got to wipe sweat off the lane.  Very glamorous, I know.  Anyway, we got two free tickets to the game (they are VERY difficult to get) and got to sit with our backs to the wall.  We were the top level and the uppermost seats, but Poppy and I were just as proud as we could be of Ben.  Poppy brought his camera and this was the best picture we could get from our seats.  Ben is the small dot under the arrow :-)

  

At an anniversary 2009

Here are some pictures taken at an anniversary for someone on Munga's side of the family (Kemper).

New Year's Eve 2007 (almost)

On December 7, 2007, Mums and Pops decided it would be fun to have knee replacement surgery on the same day.  Gentleman that he was, Pops of course let Mums go first.  They were not allowed to share a room in the hospital, but on the first day after surgery Pops walked down the hall and visited Mums.  That's love.  They then got to recuperate at home together for several weeks and enjoyed every minute together.  Aunt Mary came over on (almost) New Year's Eve and brought them dinner. :-)

Happy Birthday Aunt Mary!

Ancient History :-)

Thanks to Aunt Mary for scanning and sending these wonderful and beautiful pictures!!!!

We have no idea when this was taken but it appears to be Poppy and Uncle Jimmy doing battle with a tree!

Our best guess on this one is somewhere around 1957ish

Spring 1966 (can you find me in the picture?)

This was taken in the summer of 1966 :-)

As was this.  Five generations of Nason women!  
A force to be reckoned with!!!

Lots of cousins with Pop Pop and Munga :-)  Probably summer of 1970.

Summer of 70 on the same day as above!

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day Dad.  I love you bunches and bunches behind my back and I miss you just as much.  You are the best ever.

Miss you

Wish you were with us...

In honor of Pops, on the year anniversary of our loss, we went bowling.  Bowling was something Pops LOVED and kicked serious butt in.  It was how he spent his evenings with good friends for MANY years.  He taught Ben to bowl even when the bowling alley didn't have shoes small enough for Ben to wear.  He almost always managed a bowling trip with the kids whenever he came for a visit. 

We will always bowl with you in our hearts.
