Home again...home again...

"Jiggity Jig"??? (I don't know why that was in my head! LOL!)


(A view of the sunset on the plane as we were coming in to land yesterday. I wish I could have captured how spectacular and bittersweet it actually was as we glided above the clouds and the gorgeous red, orange, and yellow softly danced across David's face.)

We are back. We are tired. We are sad. We are still sick! Can you believe that? Samantha has been puking since she got home. I don't know if it's the same bug or a new one we picked up on the way, but I'm hoping she doesn't give it to the rest of us.

I don't know how, but the last two weeks have felt like a whole month, and I have to shake it off and get my work done. The holidays are over...the goodbyes are over... and now it's time to get back into the swing of everyday life.

QUICK NOTE TO ALL FAMILY AND FRIENDS:

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU GUYS ARE WONDERFUL!! You know who I mean...I mean you reading this right now because of the wonderful warm thoughts you sent, or the big hugs I got from you on Wednesday and/or Thursday, or all the buzz you have created about what I wrote further down the page about Grandma. You are all so beautiful, and I love you very much.

ABOUT PICTURES:
If there are any pictures of Grandma and/or Grandpa you know I have, and you want a copy, let me know. If you have a Walgreens or Wal-Mart close to you, I can upload them to print out at your local store for you to pick up. If you don't have either, I can also do the traditional snail mail for you or e-mail the file.

Second.... I have a Cafe Press shop. I'm going to upload there sometime this week a few different images of Grandma and/or Grandpa I like. I will pick out a few products that are more along the lines of memorial related, and if there is something you would like, you can order from them directly through the site. I'll post something about it when it's ready.

I didn't take many pictures on this trip, and the ones that I took for some reason were not that good...many out of focus somehow. Here is one of me and the kids taken by Keith on Thursday after the funeral (He cut part of my head off, but it's the best picture of the bunch from that day.)



I promise happier posts in 2007. REALLY!!! Thanks again everyone!

(LOL -- I just noticed from this picture that Samantha's shoes were on the wrong feet!!! She must have had them on that way all day, and in all the rushing around, nobody noticed. Ooops! I just thought it was a little funny.)

First of all, let me say how sorry I am that this Christmas season has so saddened your heart, as well as those around you. And hope that you can soon come around to feeling "UPbeat" again.
