On Friday, my dad picked me up from school, and within an hour, our family was off to California for my grandpa's memorial service the next day. I worked on some homework, while my siblings listened to music and watched some DVD's. We spent the night in Sacramento, and drove for an hour and a half to the church where the service was held.
It definitely had some sad parts to it, but I was glad that my grandpa lived a pretty long life and did many good things. We had some food, and even a good amount of dessert, afterwards. We spent the rest of the day at my grandma's house near Stockton; many of her relatives were there helping her manage her life.
Yesterday, we left early in the morning to drive all the way back to our house; I mostly just rested and listened to the radio. When we got back late last night, I unpacked some of my luggage and then just went to bed. I couldn't seem to sleep for the next few hours.
Today is picture day at my school; I still look forward to the open house on Thursday. That day, my parents will get to find out about many things that I've done.

Hi Ziggy,
Thanks for sharing about your trip to California - it sounds like it was a good trip, even though I'm sure you were all sad to lose your grandpa.
I hope your mother is doing well these days.
Cheers,
Mrs. Tate
