Free Weekend!

Its so refreshing, when thinking ahead to the weekend, knowing that nothing, except making a birthday cake for Phil, is on the calendar!! What a relief. We get to rest. And maybe watch a movie, or play games. Or...whatever!

We made it home from California late Sunday night, and after an exhausting weekend, was glad to be home. All of the family: my family (7 of us), my dad's three sister's and their families, plus a few great grand kids, and some of my mom's family, were together. It was a great memorial service and great to all be together in my grandmothers house for one last time. It was hard to leave. That was my grandparents home for 30 years. Crazy! I haven't even been alive that long. =) But it was like moving from my house...so many memories!


Here's some pictures. One of my dad and his 3 sisters, (left to right: Janet, Chyrese and Cindy) and the other of all the cousins (Deidre, Derek, Spencer, Garrett, Me, April and Brian).

Thanks for your prayers and thoughts.

Phil's dad is home, and recovering. Elizabeth came home for a few days, but was re-admitted with flu and well, the other kind of stomach/intestinal "thing." Keep her in your prayers.
