Carson's Preschool Graduation times two!

Carson and his best buddy Nolan. Look out these two will be trouble some day!

Carson graduated from Little Lambs and Let's Get Ready Preschools this week! I am excited for my boy to go to Kindergarten, but sad this was my last prek graduation!

Where does the time go?

Seventeen years ago this month I met a hunky boy named Brad Hopkins. I am a sucker for tall, dark, and broad shoulders! It hasn't always been a walk in the park for us, but we are still going strong. Thanks for sticking with me through the bad times, and laughing with me through the good times. I know now after all this time that you always have my back. Whether it's holding my hand through 18 hours of labor, giving me a giant bear hug when I had a really hard day, or driving me cross country so I can see my 90 year old grandma.  -Love ya

Dear Mother Nature.......WTH??????

My Beloved Grandpa George

I found this photo while I was going thru my pictures. First of all, my grandpa George was a very handsome man! But what he wrote on the back struck me. I think that's what he would say to my Grandmother if he could. And I know he waits for her in heaven. There is still an ache when I think of my Grandpa George. I miss him every day. But we will see each other again someday, and he will probably buy me a Hot Sam pretzel like he did when I was little and sit patiently while I ask him a bazillion questions. I miss you Grandpa and thinking of you always........
