We'll miss you Uncle Chuck

Over Labor Day weekend our family drove up to Idaho Falls to visit with Terry, Brian & family. We were also excited to visit with Matt's Uncle Chuck (Bousquet). He recently had to go into a rehabilitation home because he wasn't doing well health wise.
Terry told us how much he loved Reese's peanut butter cups so we stopped off and bought him a couple of bags. When we got there he was doing his physical therapy and we told him that when he finishes we had a treat for him, his eyes got as big as silver dollars!!  He was so excited he was lifting hand weights and walking on the parale bars so good!! We were SO proud at his progress!! We had a great visit with him, we love him so much!! He is the last of the Bousquet brothers (Matt's 'real' dad is his baby brother George, he passed away awhile back). He has been a father like figure to Matt.
Our hotel room had a great view of the Idaho Falls Temple, it was so beautiful!!
We love going to visit and spending time with Terry & Brian and their family (Josh & Lanissa).
They taught us how to play pool (yes, even I played shocking huh??) The girls played while the guys worked!! haha
We had a sad phone call last Thursday when Brian told us that Uncle Chuck wasn't doing well and didn't think he'd make it though the night.
Uncle Chuck passed away the next day, his service is this Friday Oct. 8th. at the Wood's funeral home.
We will miss him dearly!!

  1. The pictures of your girls are so cute! Sorry for your loss. It is always hard to loose the people we love even if we know we will see them again. I have some yummy leftover treats I wish I could bring to work and share so I wouldn't end up eating them all!!!
