Conference Weekend

This weekend was great! Honestly, I found myself saying that over and over again. Friday night after the funeral we went to Frightmares at Lagoon. We met up with the Youngbergs and Sorenson's. Then the next morning we had pancakes and watched conference. During the break Seth took the girls swimming at the rec center. Then the night the girls and I went to see the movie Hotel Transylvania 2 and then dinner. On Sunday we watched conference as a family. I loved listening to the talks. During dinner we asked the girls which talk was their favorite. I was amazed that even the twins could tell some of the stories they heard. Later that night we went on a walk together.

I loved having all of us together. With Bella being gone so much now I appreciate the times we have together even more. 

Jami's Funeral

Jami's funeral was hard in some ways but nice in others. It's nice to have closure and be able to move on. Some of Seth's good friends from the old days came which meant a lot. Then our friends the Youngberg's and the Sorenson's came to the viewing. Later that night the Stewart's ad Crane's stopped by. It meant a lot to Seth. We have great friends.

Kelli and Beth both spoke and did a nice job. Megan did a spotlight that was very nice.

It will be interesting to see what happens next.I hope Blake can grieve and let the kids grieve before he starts dating. But his family would like him to start. And I think he had already let go before she passed. I think Megan will have the hardest time. The day she died and we were there she was crying and saying "mommy, why did you have to go?". Plus they've really only had 2 weeks to prepare since Jami was in denial and wouldn't talk about death. It is hard because Jami was difficult to be around and Seth has hard feelings for her. Of course he loved her and cried when she passed but she made it hard to be around.
