Weekend in Virginia!!

This weekend Ruth Ann and I went to Virginia to visit her boyfriend. We left on Friday evening and on the way down my mom called and said that her mother had passed away 10 min. Earlier and that she was going to be spending the night with Martha her sister that took care of grandma. And ahe also told us to enjoy our weekend and try to be home for the viewing on Sunday. We got where we were going to be sleeping that night at 11:30.

The next morning we were up and at em by 5:00 then we went over to Tyler's house and talked a bit then Ruth Ann and Tyler went to help his mother at her stand where she sells baked goods for the day and I headed up to Mountain View which is about 2 hours from where Tyler lives. 

I got at Mountain View by 8:30 then I went down to the girls dorm to help my friends Elana pack all her belongings because she was moving out the next day. Some of the staff there was going to Ihop for breakfast so Elana and I decided to go along. It was so much fun the ride down was so entertaining!! When we got there we waited to be seated for an hour and when we sat down it took a bit to get our food but we did have 15 people so it was understandable.

When we got back to the home we helped set up for the fair well that evening. Once we were done it looked so nice you would have thought it was a wedding reception!! The fair well was so nice!! The people said such nice things about the people who were fair welling I think that they were very special to the people at Mountain View. After the banquet we went down to the girls dorm to open up gifts and they didn't finish up until after 11:30.

On Sunday we headed home at 8:00 so we could be home by 12:30 so we would be home for dinner. Then we had the viewing the viewings were from 2-4 and 6-8. It was so nice to see all the people that came through and to hang out with my cousins again. The funeral was on Monday it was a very nice funeral my grandma was a very sweet compassionate lady. She looked so peaceful.

Well I hope you all have a good week!!
