Alex, Caitlin, and Brinley all dressed up for a night of fun…

Alicia brought her two sons over to BBQ with us this evening. Kids had a blast, dog got stuffed, and everyone’s almost ready for bed. We grilled up some Tri-tip steaks with mashed potatoes, peas, and Texas Toast.

A poem by JoAnna:

Tall and strong
Like his heart was wide
Always gathering friends
Who stood by his side

Constant stories
Drove imaginations wild
So grown up
Yet still a child

Emotionally strong
Never a fear
Yet always a dry shoulder
For a friends lonely tear

Four-bying and fishing
Wild as the sea
A heart so young
A spirit so free

All of his friends
Sisters and brothers
We lost him to his heart
Still he captured many others

Although he’s out reach
Now he’s out of view
He’ll live on in our hearts
Tanner we love you!
