After the parade we went over to my grandpa Ellersicks grave to put some flowers and flags on it. It was kind of a special moment for a few reasons. It is always good to remind my kids of who grandpa ellersick was since they never had a chance to meet him but also because my new nephew Gavin is the first Ellersick boy to be born in 25 years (it is up to my two brothers to carry on the Ellersick name). Even though Grandpa was not their we took a 4 generation picture. It was quite touching and we were all a little teary that Grandpa was not there to share it with us!
