Our dear sweet Grandma Lue passes away on Saturday. We will miss her very much but we know she is a much better place. Some of my favorite memories of Grandma Lue are:
* Every birthday since I can remember we would go shopping and then to lunch. I could pick anything out that I wanted to but I had to try on things that Grandma wanted me to. We did not always have the same taste but we always had so much fun shopping. When I was younger we would always go to ZCMI to pick out my present and then to the Tiffin Room for lunch. Since the Ogden Mall closed (which if anyone knew Grandma Lue she thought is was the worst thing every) we would go to either Applebee's or Rainbow Garden's. I don't think we have ever missed a birthday. I will miss going to lunch with Grandma Lue this year on my birthday.
* Grandma Lue never missed any activity I was in. She loved coming to our piano recitals. She made us think it was one of her highlights. I think she really loved them. She also came to every dance recital.
*One time she was tending us and Bryce was outside playing basketball. Grandma Lue ran outside with a bottle of Vavoom and told Bryce that he forgot to put his VVVVVavoom in his hair. Being a bratty little sister I thought it was the funniest thing ever!
*Going to water aerobics with Grandma.
* Going to Farr's Ice Cream. Grandma had a major sweet tooth. You should see her candy drawer.
* Driving in her purple car.
*Playing on the floor with Chloe.
*Stuffed celery
I will miss Grandma Lue (Mama Lue, is what she wanted our friends to call her) very much but I have so many great memories.
