I'm very sorry about your grandmother. It's never easy. I pray you and your family will especially enjoy the time you spend together these holidays. (Perfect time to tell fun stories about your gram.)

i know this is a terrible time - i was devastated when i lost my grandpa. i'm so glad you are with your family for all the support you need but also that you are there to support them.
this was the first time my mother and i swapped roles. i had to be stronger than her on this occasion because she deserved me to be.
i hope you have a lovely thanksgiving, celebrating all the wonderfulness of your grandma.

You and your family are both in my prayers... I know your Thanksgiving is going to be lovely!

Congrats to the winner and take of you love. Happy thanksgiving too.

dear olivia,
i hope you have a wonderful time with your family + are able to refuel. i know how times like this can be so so draining...hope you're doing okay.

lots of love, janis.

im very sorry :( xoxo

I just went through my grandfathers death a couple months ago and it's still so hard. You're so strong though and it's great that you and your family are so close. You'll be a great support system for each other.

my grandmothers both passed away when I was quite young. one from lung cancer when i was about 7, and the other from ovarian cancer when I was 12. it was very hard to lose them both and I miss them all the time and think about them every day. the best thing to do is cherish the memories you have, be happy for the time God allowed you all to spend together, and to remember that your grandmother will always be there in heart, even when she isn't in body. it sounds like you guys have a beautiful relationship, I wish you and your family the best during these difficult times.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I'll keep you and your family in my prayers.

so sorry to hear about your grandma, but how wonderful to have some quality time surrounded by friends and family who you can lean on for strength.

you'll be in my prayers.

Beautiful pictures. I hope your Thanksgiving is peaceful and lovely, and you can all share wonderful memories.

I am really sorry for your loss, Olivia...I hold you and your family in my heart!

Have a wonderful time with your family this week! xxoo

I am so sorry about your Grandmother. I will be thinking about you.

I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I'm thinking of you Olivia! It seems like your Grandma was wonderful. I still miss both of mine. I hope your family have a great Thanksgiving in her memory.

I can't imagine what you are going through. Stay strong. It seems like you have an amazing family and that you all are supporting each other. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm so sorry about your grandma Olivia. My grandma passed away in 2004 and it was all very unexpected. No one even knew she was sick, so it was very, very hard on all of us. She was the first person I lost who I was truly close to, and I feel like I haven't been the same since. It just kind of takes some of that carefree innocence from you, you know?

But I promise you, it does get better. Stay strong.

Have an amazing Thanksgiving!

i'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your grandma, olivia. i hope your thanksgiving is filled with great memories of her.

I'm sorry about your Grandmother love but I hope you have a great thanksgiving.

p.s. The butternut squash lasagne sounds amazing, thanks for sharing
