Currently...

I feel like life lately has been totally crazy these past couple weeks! Eric and I got back from West Virginia for Thanksgiving and we came home to a viewing and funeral for Grandpa Neal. It was a very tough thing and is especially hard around the Holidays. We are grateful though for family and spending time together. It was a very nice funeral.




After the all of the funeral stuff was over, Eric and I worked, finished the rest of the Christmas shopping, and got all of the Christmas cards mailed and sent out. It was so fun to do them and everyday I love getting cards in the mail from other people. 

I finished finals on Wednesday and have another semester down. Yay! It is such a good feeling to be done for a couple weeks. Eric and I have been wrapping presents and just hanging out. McCall is in town and so we have been doing fun things as a family. My parents have tickets to a bunch of stuff this weekend so we are excited to be with family. 

Unfortunately, Eric and I got the dreaded phone call on Thursday morning that Eric's grandpa had passed away. He went into the hospital about a week ago and then he passed away at home. It was pretty fast which is a blessing. Eric and I will be going to West Virginia the day after Christmas for a funeral. We are so done with deaths. Eric and I have both lost our grandfathers in less than a month. We are hoping that we don't have to go through another one for a long time. Have a Merry Christmas with your families!
