If your a pumpkin nut like me your probably freaking out right about now. I know I am!! :) Not to mention Halloween is right around the corner. And soon after that is Thanksgiving!! There's nothing like family, football & of course it wouldnt be complete without delicious food :) I can't wait!!

Rest In Peace Sweet Puppy xo
Yesterday quickly turned tragic when Nike got out and ran off, he was later discovered hit by a car. We learned that whoever hit him never even stopped. How could someone do that? Rest In Peace poor Bobo. You were the sweetest puppy ever, we all miss you terribly. <3 xoxo

June = Beginning of Summer :)
I haven't posted anything in a while so here is my first June post. :) Yay June is finally here!! :)
June is one of my favorite months because it is the beginning of "SUMMER!!" and Summer is by far my favorite Season. :) June is a busy month. There is a total of 6 birthdays just in the family. Lots of birthday shopping to do.
Now is the time when the kids get out of school and camping trips begin. :) I love camping. I wasn't able to go last year, so this year I have to make up for it. :) I love boating with my friends, inner tubing behind the boat, anything involving water. That is the summer fun I live for. I can not wait to the lake everyday, boating, camping, bonfires, bikini's, iced drinks, coffee, all the summery foods, ice cream, smoothies, family reunions, and tanning. As far as I'm concerned it's heaven on earth.
This summer is going to be a good one. :) I am so excited for all the endless possibilities in store. It's going to suck when it's over. :(

A Blast From The Past :)
While Mom was here visiting she went through some old pictures from when my brother and I were kids. It took her quite some time to go through, and that wasn't even half of the pictures. 1 box of many boxes. I want to share a few of the pictures we came across. Looking back on at these pictures, I miss how things used to be. But am also glad how things are now. I gotta say Mom, you and Dad made some pretty cute kids. :)
Jason if you are reading this, I just want to say I love you so much. I hope we remain close over the years, even if one of us moves away. I am always just a text or phone call away. I want us to be a huge part of one another's lives. I want to be there to watch my beautiful niecey piecey grow up, just like I would want you there to be apart of my kids life. I love you Broskee and nothing will ever change that. xo <3
6 years old.

Mama's Visit Part II
Headed to the airport to pick up my Mama, I was bursting with excitement. I can not believe it has been 5 years since our last visit. That is just ridiculous and WAY too long to go without your mama. The time sort of flew by, yet at the same time stood still. I was just so happy to see her. Hopefully our next visit will be a lot sooner. :) I know I will be seeing your smiling face really soon. <3
We also took her to Rocky & Bullwinkle's ( Family Fun Center). Played laser tag, went on the go carts and bumper boats, the roller coaster simulator, played air hockey, and a bunch of arcade games. :)
While she was here, we got to do a lot of fun stuff with her. Her first day we took her to the Cheese Cake Factory for dinner. I'm glad she enjoyed it. :) We came home and just relaxed. Friday we had a blast drinking in the garage, playing darts and chilling. That was the first time that I actually drank with one of my parents, ans it was a lot of fun. :) Staying up until 7 in the morning. She is so awesome. I love her to death. <3
 |
| Mommy in a mask :) |
She also got to spend some time with her son and daughter in-law and of course her beautiful new granddaughter. She finally got to hold her precious baby Kendra for the first time. <3 She loves her very much!!

We also took her to the Point Defiance Zoo, and she loved it.:) (Pictures Below) We walked around twice because some of the animals were hiding. The weather was overcast, thankfully it wasn't raining. :P That's all we asked for, was that it wouldn't rain. I wish she was able to be here for the really nice weather we had later the day she went back home. :(

She went to I Pic (21+ movie theater) for the first time ever. We saw The Place Beyond The Pines. She also liked that. We also took her to the regular movie theater with those who were under 21, and saw Oblivion. We picked up Yahtzee and Phase 10 to play on the days we stayed in which wasn't very often. :) We had a girl day and got our nails done. :) We will have to do that more often. <3 I am so happy that she enjoyed her visit. She was here for 13 days, but it flew by so fast :( I wish she was able to stay longer, or at least have the time go by slower ;) I love you Mama Goosey! I'm glad you enjoyed your visit! I miss, and love you oh so much. xo <3 Until our next visit.

Mama's Visit.
After going 5 long years without seeing my Mama, I was so excited to pick her up from the airport.
I talk and text her all the time, but it's just not the same as seeing her. It sucks that we go so long without seeing one another. Hopefully I'll be able to convince her to move here from Canada. ;)
I can dream. :)
I am so glad that she got to spend time with us and her new granddaughter, who she adores with all her heart. Next time it won't be that long without seeing one another. :) I don't want her to leave on the 24th. :( I hate saying goodbye, no matter what the situation. The rest of the time is going to fly by so fast. :'(

Kendra is a week old already :)
Over the past week Kendra has accomplished so much. One of her first smiles/giggles were caught on camera. :) Even when she is being fussy there is still a smile just waiting to come out. She is one of the most well behaved and non temperamental babies I know. I love holding her in my arms and looking down at her precious little face. ♥
I could not love you more. I can't wait to teach you a whole bunch of wonderful stuff. I look forward to watching you accomplish so many wonderful things in this world, and watching you grow into a wonderful, gorgeous little girl, pre-teen, teenager, and young woman. Aunty Reesey loves you to pieces and always will my precious niecey piecey. ♥ xoxo.

An Angel Has Been Called Home.
It is with a sad heart and disbelief that I am posting this. I still can't believe that you are gone. I guess God needed his dearest angel to come home.
Over the weekend my Uncle Shane was admitted to the hospital. They didn't know if it was a heart attack, stroke or an aneurysm. He was in a induced coma. Days went by and he remaind unresponsive. And today I got the news. He sadly did not make it out. :(
My Wonderful Uncle Shane:
May you Rest In Peace with the angels. And know that we all love you and miss you dearly. You were and always will be an amazing person, father, son, brother, husband, and uncle. Your memory will live on in all of us. You may be gone, but you will never ever be forgotten. <3
Here's to all my dear family. I love you all so so much and may my love and prayers be with each and every single one of you.

A Day At The Mall With The Family :)
With family there is never a dull moment, seriously...never. Yesterday we went on an adventure to the mall. After walking around for a while we came across a Fiat and thought it would be funny to have Chris sit in it, or at least try to. As you can tell from the picture it was pretty entertaining at least for all of us anyways. It's always a good time when you're with family. God I love my family. I wouldn't change it for the world. I love you all!!

Growing Baby 4 1/2 Months Along
My Brother and his girlfriend's Baby Growing.
Currently they are at 4 1/2 Months. :) At the end of the month they will find out the sex. So exciting!! Their due date is April 9th. As time goes on, and her belly grows, so does the excitement and anticipation. I can honestly say that I am so excited to be an auntie, and can not wait. :) Hurry up and get here you little stinker!!
5 wonderfully amazing years together.
I meant to post this on the 6th, but totally forgot about it, so here it is now.
Today (November 6th) marks our 5 year anniversary. 5 wonderful years ago you gave me your heart and I gave you mine. I remember it like it was yesterday. I will never forget that day, it was the happiest day of my life. And 5 years later our love has grown stronger for one another. We have had our ups and downs, but through it all our bond became unbreakable. There is nothing that will or could break our bond.
It truly is rare that you marry your highschool sweetheart, but it does happen. And I have found that in you. Not only are you my soul mate but your my best friend and everything in between. You won't find another love or relationship like ours. I really got lucky that day you walked into my life. I never would have dreamed that we would be where we are now. You have made my dreams come true, and have made me the luckiest girl alive. I am so blessed and thank God every single day for bringing me my angel.
I love you more than anything and always will,
Forever and Always <3

Drunk Drivers... just another name for "Murderers".
If there is one thing that pisses me off more than most it would be "DRUNK DRIVERS". In 2 words FUCKING IDIOTS!! Call me sensitive or whatever, I've had friends and people I've known in high school how have died because they decided they were going to drive after drinking. It's kind of a big fucking deal, at least to me anyways. And such a stupid fucking idea if you ask most anyone.
Recently one of my good friends was in a really bad accident. A drunk driver hit him head on. The drunk driver was killed on impact, while the passenger of the vehicle my friend was driving was paralyzed. Thankfully nothing too bad happened to my friend, just bruises and stuff. But seriously it's people like this who don't give a shit about others. Whoever thinks it's cool, you couldn't be more wrong. If you even think about doing it, your a fucking idiot period. You wonder why most accidents occur here's your answer DRUNK DRIVERS/Alcohol is involved. I would never wish anything horrible like this on anyone. It affects not only you, but the people you love, and whoever else is involved in a case like this. It's one of the most terrible things that could happen in my book.
Here are some pictures of the accident:
I don't know about you but that is some scary fucking shit right there. And to walk away from it without any major injuries none the less is a miracle. They had to use the jaws of life on the van to get everyone out. It's sad that shit like this happens all the time, just because one moron decides that I'm alright to drive even though I've had a few. It doesn't matter if you've had one and get behind the wheel, you're still over the legal limit, and your endangering not only yourself, but everyone else that you share the road with. Drunk driving is a serious matter Not to be taken lightly by ANYONE.
To all the families out there who have been affected by drunk drivers at one point or another in their lives, I am sorry for your loss(es), and am so sorry it happened in the first place. I know nothing anyone does or say can bring them back. It's a horrible thing that no person should have to go through ever. May god be with you all.
2 Amazing thumbs up for all the strong families of the victims of drunk driving related accidents. You are an inspiration to me. I wish I could have half the strength that you all have. May god bless you.

Babies :)
In the past 2 1/2 years or 3 maybe even 4 most my childhood friends/family are either getting married or having babies. Don't get me wrong that's amazing for them, and I couldn't be happier for them. I wish them and their families nothing but the best.
I found out last month that my younger brother and his wonderful girlfriend are having a baby! A BIG Congratulations and best wishes to them :) I couldn't be happier for them. Their pregnancy is still in the early stage right now, her morning sickness just started. They plan on getting engaged, and married before the baby comes along. Some might say that people are getting married and having babies to young these days. And you would be partially right. Back in the day say 10 to 12 years ago. People planed on getting married and having kids after they have experienced everything they wanted to in their life and are in a good place in life to have a baby financially, career wise and so on.
I'm not saying that having kids early is a bad thing. As long as you can take proper care of that child, and make sure they have and get all the things they need. Let's be honest these days it's hard enough to get by on your own let alone adding another person to that, especially young people who just graduated and are going into the world for the first time. Having a baby is not a cake walk. Your up all hours feeding and trying to get them to go to sleep. Everyone involved looses sleep. You still have to cook and clean and do all the stuff you did before the baby came, except the unhealthy things like smoking and so on. There are some people out there who have done it. And to those parent I say 'Job Well Done'.
I guess it really depends on where you and your partner are in your lives. For example my brother and his girlfriend. They have been together for a year, it'll be 2 years in December for them. Yes they both are very young, but they both love each other very much and they are at a place in their lives where they feel is a good time for them to have children. It's not like she just wants a kid and he doesn't or vice versa . They both want kids and are extremely happy and excited about their unborn baby. It's usually the people who want to have kinds and plan on it that are good loving parents. And I know that they will be great parents. :)
Personally for me I'm a little more old fashioned and so is my boyfriend. I didn't want to have a baby at a young age. It wasn't until late this year that my wonderful boyfriend and I started thinking about having kids. I mean we've talked about it before and all, but we want to have a baby here in the near future. But before we do that we want to be in a good place financially and so forth. We both grew up in poverty and don't want to raise our child like that. We want our child to have a better childhood/ life than we had. I like my mother think that a good age to have a child is your mid 20's. You've had time to be in a good place to have children. Schooling is done, good job attained, house in a good neighborhood with schools. We most definitely do NOT want to move our child around from house to house like I and my boyfriend did as children. It sucks having to change schools and homes constantly.
Hopefully in the next year or 2 we will have all our stuff together, good paying job, good house and everything else we want to accomplish before we have our first child. :) The more I think about it the more real it becomes, and the more excited I get about one day becoming a mommy. :) When that day comes it will be one of the most wonderful experiences of my life, a true blessing. But until then I am more than happy with what I have right now. A true partner in life, someone I will gladly grow old with. :) Someone who loves me more than anything because I'm his everything. Someone who's always there for me and has my back no matter what. Someone who wants nothing more than to make me happy every single day. Someone who completes me and keeps me centered when I'm about to lose my cool. Someone who is my other half or better half :) THE ONE I am going to spend the rest of my life with. SO BLESSED :) <3
