Meet Mona and Boppa Folven

Meet the best in-laws I could ever ask for.  Mona's name is really Marcia but when Ian was little, he could not say Marcia so he called her Mona and it just stuck. Boppa is Boppa....well, it just fits him.  
One word to describe this set of grandparents is JOYFUL.
I have known this family since 1996 and truly feel blessed to be a Folven. Marcia is a great listener and truly just loves when the family is all together, so much that they moved south to be closer to everyone. Boppa loves to travel and help others. He keeps very busy. He goes fishing each year in Alaska where he has another home.  He sends us 50lbs of fish which is truly a blessing. They both travel often with my parents which is rare to see in-laws that are so close and truly love each other.  Angella and Mike are so much fun to be around and filled with giving hearts. They have helped us so many times in our life. Jeffrey is newly married and we love seeing them when they come north from Florida.

 Ian is the oldest grandchild and Angella's first.
 Meet the new Nicky Folven.  Both Derek and Jeff married a girl with the same name and both are teachers.
Meet Aunt Angella, Uncle Mike, Ian and Garrett


Garrett is like Ava's twin.  He was born 20 days after Ava and they are the closest to siblings as you can get.  She loves when Mona brings him to TN to visit during the summer.
