Last night my grandpa passed away. So I scrambled to get a flight to Utah and ($450 bucks later) got one. At that price we couldn't afford to have Brent go, so from Sat until Mon I will be over there, just me and Daniel. I am bitter-sweet about it - sad that my grandpa is gone yet happy he has gone. I am very excited to see my family get together, I haven't seen many of them in 13 years or more. My dad's family is so enormous that only an event like this can bring them all together. I am so blessed to be able to go.. and blessed we have savings enough to cover it. Just when I think life has gotten crazy enough it keeps getting crazier.

I am sure your granfather had a long and happy life. I am glad that you have the chance to go and be with your family and they can meet Daniel. Too bad that Brent and Jacob could not go also. We will be thinking about you and hopeing the plane ride goes smoothly. Love and hugs for everyone.
