Unexpected road trip

Mr. C's stepdad and sister were supposed to come and visit and stay with us the night before Christmas eve and stay for a few days for the holidays. That week Mr. C had been talking with his stepdad who told him that his mother was not doing well and he didn't think they would make it down since they did not expect her to live much longer. On Christmas Eve morning we received the phone call that Mr. C's step-grandma had passed away at 11:00pm the night before. The visitation was to be held on the following Monday with the funeral mass on Tuesday. Mr. C and I had talked and we wanted to go to some part of the services if we could and we shared this with his aunts & grandma. Mr. C's stepdad's family lives about 3-4 hours away. Monday came & Mr. C could not join us but I joined Grandma, AK, & AL and went started our road trip to the visitation with lil miss. We arrived at their house before heading to the visitation, here is lil miss with her aunt S for the first time.

Although it was a very long day as we drove there and back and visited for 5 hours, I am glad that lil miss & I went and were there to support J & S.
