A couple weeks ago we took a trip to California for a reunion for Lenny's mom's side of the family. Doris, Monea and Kayla came down, then we drove 2 cars down to Corning. Lenny drove one car, I drove the other, and we split the kids up. My car had a bit of the craziness in it.... (and some serious craziness I will post as a video)
We started off with a visit to the cemetery to take flowers to Doris's mom. I told the kids we were going to visit great grandma where her body was, but to remember her soul was up in Heaven. They have grasped the body/soul differentiation pretty well so far. However, as we drove up Jazmine did say "I can't wait to see what Great Grandma is wearing." Bless her little heart. I reminded her we weren't actually going to be able to see her. So as we were leaving she says, "I guess I just have to wait until Heaven to see what Great Grandma is wearing! I am so excited" :)
After the visit to drop off flowers it was off to the reunion!
After the reunion a big group of people went to Bubba's house. That was a ton of fun, too!! Everyone just able to sit around and talk and catch up for hours! It was super hot there in Chico, and so the kids headed out to the kiddie pool!
It was a fabulous trip and we can't wait to go again!! Lenny promised we'd try to make it every year instead of every other like we have been. It's only a 6 1/2 hr drive from here so nothing that is too far!! :)
Oh, here is a sneak peek of what it was like in my car with Isaac and music! It's only a cell phone video, so not good quality....but what I can tell you is that he sang along to every song every chance he got!
