Happy and Sad

This post is for those that haven't heard from other sources - but Karens mom - aka Nana Lind passed away yesterday. There are so many things that we are thankful for. We are thankful for the person that she was; the witness that she had and the great mom and grandma that she was to all of us. We were able to see her this past weekend, when we were in Albert City for the 2013 Threshing Bee and she was in good spirits and enjoyed our visit. The girls danced, the Brown boys played their instruments and we took pictures outside. Little did we know that those were the last moments that she would have here on earth. We know she is in heaven and we know that she is now free from any earthly ailments; and just enjoying her first morning in heaven. We are so thankful for her and look forward to being reunited one day.
