Eve couldn’t wait for it to warm up in the spring so she could have a barbeque.  She also loved being at the lake and going out in the boat, as long as it wasn’t too choppy and the sun was shining. Christmas was her favorite holiday. She loved having her grandkids over to decorate, cut out cookies and sneak them early Christmas presents, because she just couldn’t wait.
