Back In Town

Just got back in town from Kentucky. The drive went pretty smoothly and quick. I was able to drive down with my sister and her family which was nice. We got into Louisville around 2:30 and had a chance to relax before the rest of our family got into town. We ended up going to my uncle's house which I was afraid was going to be really hard. There were pictures of my aunt around. We were all trying not to cry because we knew once we started we wouldn't be able to stop. Ended up having a really nice night with my aunts, uncles, and cousins. Got to see family I haven't seen in probably 7 or 8 years!

The funeral was such an amazing celebration of my aunt's inspiring life. She was such an amazing woman! My uncle actually did a lot of the service. I really don't know how he was able to get through more than 2 words without completely having a breakdown. He cried a little here and there, but it was really amazing what he said about his lovely wife. Two of my other uncle's helped with the service. It was such a sad time but yet such a time of celebration.

Don't know what else to say about the whirlwind of the last 36 hours. I am exhausted physicaly and mentally.
