On Wednesday morning (May 13), right after I had droped George off at school, Mom called and told me that Grandma had passed away. I then began to plan our trip out west. Fortunately, Mike was able to find someone to trade with and was able to get off of work for a couple of days. We packed up the car Wednesday night and left for Salt Lake at 4:30 am Thursday morning.
The boys were great, and we made it to Mom and Dad's at about 9:30pm SL time. It was wonderful to be with the family. Saturday, we were able to participate in the Great Strides event (a fundraiser for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation). The kids had a wonderful time, and I got to see a number of friends and family who came out to support our family. (Many of whom I hadn't seen in a long time!) Thank you to all of you who came out!
I'll post more photos from the walk and more on Grandma's services when I download the photos.

We were at Wheeler farm today as well, but just for the animals, not the walk. Sorry about your grandmother, but glad that you could make it out.
I'm sorry about your grandma, but it was so great to see you.
Great job on the walk... my heart goes out to your sweet family. I do hope these efforts will eventually lead to a cure for your sweet niece and nephew.
The painting of your boys is also very beautiful! Who did it?
