Visits

While in California we were able to do a few REALLY important things. The first was seeing Steve's cousin Marissa who was in the ICU after a terrible car accident and the second was seeing my sweet Grandpa who is just oh so lonely and always ready for visitors. 

Luckily the day worked out perfect. We drove to Riverside and visited with Marissa who looked amazing for all that she had gone through (fractured pelvis, brain hemorrhage, fractured ribs, etc.). We really enjoyed the couple hours that we got to spend with her sweet parents (Uncle David and Aunt Gayle) and also our Uncle Darrell and cousin Austin who were there visiting as well. 

Next we drove back passed Glendora to meet the Brasher family at Grandpa Packs house. We were so grateful for their willingness to take Quinn with them after her nap so that our day could be a bit more focused and not so hectic. 

Here is our sweet Grandpa Pack, who we adore and love dearly. I was so happy that we were able to visit him.

Although I struggled with the idea of having such a long day, after all of the visits were done I was so glad that we had gone. It was the most important thing we could have done this trip. I feel so blessed for family who is so loving and supportive, makes me feel good when I can offer a little bit of the support that they have abundantly given me.
