My Dad's Visit (part 2)

Last September my grandpa passed away. It was a sad time for our family. My grandparents had 10 kids (and no, they aren't even Mormon;))! I grew up always getting together with my family. My grandparents lived just 10 minutes away. At one point my Dad, my sister and I moved in with my grandparents for a couple of years. It was a huge blessing to us in many ways. I am grateful for that time I had with them, and many of my memories of my grandpa are from that time. It isn't the same without my grandpa around. We miss him. Like, I said, my grandparents had 10 kids....8 boys and 2 girls! You can imagine how loud our family gets...but it's always fun! So this year, in honor of my grandpa, the guys started a tradition. My grandpa loved to play golf, so this year we held the "First Annual Pliny Mier Memorial Golf Tournament." Each year the sons will take turns hosting the tournament. This year it was hosted by my youngest uncle, Greg, and was held in Las Vegas, NV. Since my dad was already in St. George, UT with us, we drove down to Vegas for that. The tournament was at a golf course that my grandpa had worked at just years ago. After the tournament, the rest of us that were in town met the guys for a banquet/lunch. We were missing most of the women and children from our family, but most of the guys were there, along with some family friends. It was good food and good fun, can't wait for next year!My grandpa
