This Memorial Day weekend we went over to my Dad's hometown of Toppenish to lay peonies on the Layman's buried there including my grandfather who served in World War II and my dad's cousin Terry who served in Vietnam. I was expecting the girls, especially Emery, to want to run around in the cemetery, but they were all very good. They were pretty focused on their task of making sure all the Laymans there had enough peonies on their graves. Emery was very sweet and tried so hard to make her flowers stand up.
