This Memorial Day was pretty slow and relaxed. Will went to a family golf tournament in the morning then we just hung out all day. At the end of the day we did have Will's mom and sister over for dinner and then we hurried over to the cemetery before it closed for the night to bring flowers. We visited Will's grandparents and great grandparents graves. I did not take a picture of both graves but the one I did photograph is the one Catherine is named after, Will's great grandmother Flora C Hemingway. The C was for Christina which is one of Catherine's middle names. We did not get to see the graves of the other people she is named for because they are in Vermont and Massachusetts. Her first name Catherine is Adah's sister's middle name. Her sister Maude Catherine passed away almost 5 years ago now. Maude was named for Adah's grandmother and great grandmother too so Catherine is named for three people on that side. Her second middle name is Angel and we added it with the suggestion of her birth mother. It was a good day and good to remember those who have passed away.
