After 2 weeks of trying to get unpacked and moved in, we found out that Dad and Mom were coming home for the weekend for a family funeral. My Dad's Aunt Jean died, such an incredible lady..an inspiration to many.
Dad was asked to speak at the funeral, after many prayers and conversation with their mission President, they decided to come home to the funeral. Fred, now living in California was able to meet them in Barstow and come up as well.....
After getting through the emotions of them coming home to THEIR home that we had torn apart moving in...we got everything ready. It really helped me unpack and organize FAST!!!
They arrived on Thursday evening and left at 4 in the morning on Sunday!!! Friday was a fun, relaxing day. After lunch with Mike. Mom, Britt and I went to get some flowers. All Mom wanted to do was get dirty. She needed to PLANT..after 3 flats of flowers that were picked out....we headed home to garden. Mom was seriously like a little girl on Christmas morning..all giggles and smiles. She made the gardens beautiful for me....:0)
Saturday was a fun day with family and celebrating Aunt Jean. Dad did an amazing job speaking. We had a fun lunch after and headed home. That night we got together as a family, played cards and enjoyed every minute with our missionaries.
Dad, Mom and Fred got up early Sunday morning and headed home. Such an AMAZING weekend full of FAMILY, my favorite!!!
With the amount of family coming to see them..we had people sleeping on the tramp, Michelle, Chuy and Fred were sleeping under the stars on the ground..it was so fun!!!!
A fun family walk....
