Meeting The Relatives

We will be flying back home to Texas today yeheyyy but I don't feel like I am reading going home yet. I still enjoy being here in California because of the nice views and the weather. Back home it will be scorching hot and I am not looking forward to it yet.

Funeral is over and I guess people coming from afar are starting to get on the road so they can be home at sundown. If not because of my FIL's funeral, I would have met my husbands relatives in California. Although funeral isn't a wonderful time to meet them but I am glad they are here and I met them. They are nice people especially Lisa, the blond woman who is very nice to me and Jadyn, Vivian, my husband's cousin that made me feel I belong to their clan. She was the one who talked to me about the people in the family from the past generation.

Finally Laid To Rest

We are here in Benicia, California right now to attend the very important funeral of our lives, my father inlaw's funeral. Finally, he was laid to rest in Benicia Cemetery today together with his family. May you rest in peace Pops and always know that your memories are treasured. We will miss you and you will always be part of us.

In the chapel, each attendee was given a chance to speak of their fondest memories with Morgan Sanborn. There were few who took part of the ceremony and I was teary-eyed of what they said. The man was such a good person based on their testimony. I felt honored being his daughter inlaw.


Here are few photos that I took at the funeral, I thought you guys would like to see them so here they go....I am going to post more photos at the funeral later folks... I need to eat real bad starving here...
