So my dad died on January 2nd. We took 5 days and drove down to the funeral. The pictures below are of that trip and also a few of the boys since we have been back. My dad was an amazing artist, some of his paintings are pictured below, just the ones my aunt, Lisa, had. I cried a lot on the trip and so that is why my face is puffy and my eye makeup is gone. It was a really good service, I think its just what dad would have wanted. I was glad to see my family, and to have my siblings around me. I have incredible brothers and sisters. I am so proud of each one of them. Loosing a parent is a hard thing to go through. It takes my breath away sometimes. I am thankful for the memories I have, for the time I was given, and for what he left behind in me. And that's all I have to say about that.
We stopped in St George on the way home and saw Jacob, Julisa, Jasmine, and Leonard Jr. The brightly colored abstract paintings are ones that Jacob and Julisa did. Bill's mom and dad rode down with us, it was a good trip, I am glad we were able to do it.
On a happier note, we are finally in our new house! We love it!
