Well, we are back from Los Angeles. It was a whirlwind trip, but we are so thankful we could be there for Bob's wake/funeral and especially just to be there for Jane, Rob & Lisa. We started off here at 4:30am on Wednesday, Jan. 2, dropped the girls off in St. Charles with Grandma & Grandpa Catey and had a 8'ish am flight out of O'hare. A stopover in San Francisco and landed in L.A. about 2:30ish pacific time. Rob picked us up and after a quick In 'n Out stop and Wal-Mart (for chains for the car to go up the moutains, just in case) we headed up to Big Bear. Jane had a wonderful 'Christmas dinner' ready for us upon our arrival at about 7:30pm & Sydney was SO HAPPY to see us. After dinner and a visit, headed to our hotel. Got to sleep about midnight. So it was about a 22 hour day for us.
Thursday we drove to Glendora for the wake services and funeral on Friday. It was an emotional 2 days. Scott and I were so very happy that we could be there to support Jane and Rob.
Bob was a very-well liked and loved man. We will miss him dearly. May Bob Rest in Peace.
We wrapped up our trip with a quick visit w/Holly and the kids in Woodland Hills, did some shopping at our old (new!) mall, had a Pinkberry (plain with yogurt chips & coconut!) (http://www.pinkberry.com/html/pbmain.php)
for mine & Lisa's favorite, Marshmallows Delights!
And red-eye flights home are not recommended, especially when you have 2 little girls that are so excited to have their family home! But, we are happy to be home.
