Lewis Family Reunion part 2

On the way home from Lake Texoma we stopped off at mom's grave.  We were concerned about how sad her mound of dirt looked until it settled, got leveled off and a headstone was placed.  My mother-in-law Susan helped us make this silk flower arrangement in a pot that could be buried a bit at the headstone to make mom look like she was loved.  So we went together and placed that.  It was perfect.

Another big "to-do" on the list was an updated family photo.  This potentially was going to be really hard because we were missing a REALLY IMPORTANT PERSON but my Sister-in-law Rachel told me about how she'd seen family photos with a photo of someone in a frame being held by someone.  This felt so right so we did it too.  

Here are some of the BEST SHOTS!
 (shockingly this one required NO editing!  Miracle!)

(As a side note.  This photo proved to be VERY powerful at the sentencing of the man who killed mom.)
