Saying Goodbye and going on a Road Trip

This afternoon we buried our Mother.  She did not want a big "to-do" and so we met at the cemetary, which was really nice as far as cemetary's go...small green rolling hills and lots of trees.  There was a small tent set up with red velvet covered chairs..and so we gathered together to say goodbye.  One by one Josh, Mel, Jeff, Jen, Adara, Cassie, Laurel, Pat and I took a small shovel full of black dirt and said our goodbyes and kind words  as we buried her ashes.  I felt as if it was the way she wanted it, I believe we honored her wishes. 

My brother and his fiance will be married in Florida next Thursday.  Sometime early Saturday morning I will be heading out with my sister, her husband and thier 3 little girls on a road trip to Orlando.  We will be stopping in Georiga to visit some family and staying there overnight; and then we should arrive to the condo sometime on Sunday.  Cal flies in on Tuesday night and I am counting down the days! "4" to go!

Mom would be happy to know we are planning on having a good time, and that we will all
 be together.  I am looking forward to sharing Disney World with Calvin for his very first time. 
 I know this is gonna be a trip to remember!!!
