On our way home from Florida

Today is the day that we have to leave Florida and the family and head back to Texas.  Rod has to get the background paperwork turned in for the new job.  He is wanting to drive back straight thru, but I however don't know how that is going to work.  It has been a hard week... and I hate having to leave Maggie without having everything wrapped up.. but we did manage to get the funeral paid for!  We are blessed to have such amazing friends and family that are there in times of need. 

I was really worried about the guys being pallbearers, but they did an amazing job and stayed strong throughout the service.  I don't know how in the world they managed that one but they did great.  They were hell bent on taking care of their brother, cousin and friend. 

Our beautiful sweet niece Heather.

All of the kids were handsome and beautiful in their dress clothes.

The kids decided that they were bringing CJ and D-Allas home with us when we left.. they even packed up the clothes and was loading them into the car.. lol






I wasn't aware that my brother in law had gotten me again with one of the big yellow motorcycle signs he tends to hang on my car when we get to see them.. Last time at my Father in Laws funeral gathering, he had attached a bright yellow bumper sticker to my rear window up top.. it made it very easy to find our car.. however it is a neon sign to cops when I speed...
Cameron informed me that Uncle Jeff had removed ALL of the bumper sticker.. I was saying, " aww that was so sweet of him... WAIT... what did he do to my car then.."   About that time, my husband was leaving in the suburban and when he turned to leave I saw an enormous yellow sign in the same place as the last.. only this one is larger and it has holes so that I can see through it while driving. 
However... on one of our middle of the night stops on our way home.. Rod shows me another sign that my car has been tagged with... It brought a huge smile to my face , not because I liked it.. but because my brother in law was able to play a prank on me.. that told me that he was going to be okay over time.   I do believe that I will remove the word "vehicle" and add "THE" to the sign.  :o)
