This Tiger Lily was one planted at my Grandpa Lars' apartment. He passed away 13 years ago this coming Tuesday. Mom transplanted it and it sits on the south side of their house. For the last 12 years it has bloomed either right before or on Father's Day. This year we were not feeling to optimistic about it because it didn't look ready to bloom and we have had a lot of cold/wet weather.

But, Grandpa came through once again this year. Mom and dad decided to walk over and didn't see any blossoms. but as they walked away, this lone blossom was way in the back.

We all love and miss Grandpa Lars. Fathers Day is always hard as it was the last time we saw him.

We miss you Grandpa, sure wish you could have met the boys, they sure are a lot of fun!!
