Rest In Peace Farmor!
Everything happens all at once. Things really do come i three's only this year it's been in 10's! LOL! At least that's how we feel. We learned Wed afternoon that Farmor (carls grandma) has passed. It was a good thing. We think. I mentioned a week or so ago that she had been going from bad to worse. It was worse than thought. But she's is with FarFar now and that will be a joyous occasion I'm sure!She has wanted it for some time now. I think the falling and breaking her arm did her in.

The funeral will be Tues. There was some confusion at first but now we have a date. Long story short (it's been an insane 24hrs!) we are flying to SLC on Sat and flying back Tue night. Carl has to be in Prescott with the court on Wed. We were originally going to drive up with the cousins. But much to my parents protest (they didn't want us to drive!) and after much dilebration they are fly flying us up. As Carl told his boss he thought he could drive up and drive back and then drive to Prescott. His boss told him he's not young and stupid anymore! LOL! I told him we're not having two funerals! It's a twelve hour drive there. We'd have the funeral, turn around and drive home and then he'd be with the court for two days after that.

Here's the best part- as I was on the phone with my mom discussing our options. (I DID NOT want them to pay for it. I was not going to go if that was the case) she found tickets for $400 a piece! I told her NO WAY! Suddenly the price dropped to $179 RT for each person. (and yes I did get the confirmation in my email) She booked in a heart beat! It was right through Delta's website!! I was still a little restitant and not sure about missing more work and still not knowing how to pull it off, she did it!

So to all the family out there - WE'LL SEE YOU SATURDAY!!
