On the road again...

Mike's beloved 94 year old grandmother passed away this morning. After a ten minute family discussion, we decided the best thing to do was all drive up for the funeral. The kids will miss one or two performances of Aladdin, but we feel it is best for all of us to head up there as a family. Jake's Saturday birthday party is up in the air right now. Two years ago the kids had three great grandmothers and now they are all looking down on us from Heaven. A cousin of my father's passed away yesterday and we will probably be able to go to his wake as well. Please say a prayer for our safe travel and for the healing of all of our relatives dealing with these losses.
