Surviving.

Sorry for the delay in the blogging. I unfortunately had to make the long trip to Pittsburgh to attend Grandma's funeral. She succumbed to lung cancer on Friday evening. We laid her to rest on Tuesday morning to be with Pap-our Grandfather. It was a long, emotional, and exhausting time. Mom is doing well, I think she is finding comfort in the fact that Grandma and Pap are finally back together. Before my Pap's passing last Thanksgiving, they had 63 wonderful years of marriage together, so it was difficult for her to find the strength to live when he passed. I'm only 2 1/2 years into my marriage and could not even begin to imagine the strength I would need to carry on without Mr. Grubbs.

It was nice to see family, not often seen, and reflect on our childhood there before we moved south. I took some pictures along the 12 hour drive and will post soon. I just wanted you to know we are fine, just fine.
