Time in Utah

I have been to Utah the last week for a funeral for my cousin Austin. The funeral was amazing. The love that was there for him and his family was just outstanding. I was able to stay with Ashley for a few days. I spent a lot of time at Temple Square as he and his woman had to work. It was good to go again. Ashley and his friend Brad and I went out to dinner and then went to the mall where we had a good time. It was fun to around them again. He has a great family. Then I went on to see Gavin get sworn in to the National Guard. WOW. My little brothers are all growing up. Then on to Aunt Alyn's house for the viewing and funeral. It was so sad and yet wonderful. I guess you just had to be there to feel and understand what I am saying. Austin was a great man and everyone loves him. The display of affection was wow. Then we went on to my mom's house. It was fun to be there. It feels like a lifetime since I've lived there. My mom and I had a good long talk on Sunday and that was great. I miss her so much. It was snowing hard and so our ride to Salt Lake was slow. When I got to the airport, my departure was delayed. It was ok once we got going though. When I got to Chicago, there was a big storm and so almost all the flights were either canceled or delayed a lot. I was supposed to leave at 9:15pm but my flight to Columbus wasn't going to be leaving till 11:55. So I was standing in line for customer service and was wondering what I was going to do as I got sick earlier that morning. I looked up and saw the gate for Dayton. I ran over there and asked if there was any way I could get on that flight and they said yes. I even got to sit in the good seats up front. We weren't able to leave for 3 hours. I made it home about 1:15am. Then it isn't very far from the airport to our house so we were home at 1:40. It was nice to sleep in my own bed. Now I am really sick with the flu and am very glad it waited till I was at home. Love you all and I am really grateful for being able to be there with you all, even when it was so sad of an occation.
