MEMORIES.....

It has been almost 12 years since my sister Adrienne passed away, I just wanted to write some of my favorite things about her~
She was always outgoing and upbeat about everything, there was not much that could get her down! She was always caring and took care of everyone in her family- She had something about her that made you always feel comfortable. She had a way of making everyone feel included and wanted- Some of my favorite memories of her come from the two of us laying in bed talking for hours every night! She tried many different hair styles out on me, including frosting my hair in her room... it turned out to be a bright orange color!! I will always remember how proud I was to be her sister. I loved having her as a cheerleader in my first varsity basketball game..it is something I will never forget! We had some great battles playing HORSE on the basketball court- They did not always end pretty if she happened to beat me! I would not change one thing about growing up with her as my sister, I only wish I could have had more time with her. She was beautiful on the outside and even more so on the inside. Anyone who knew her would tell you that there was just something "special" about her. I will never forget the day she left our lives and I am truly grateful that I was so blessed to have her as my sister and my friend.

IT IS FINALLY HERE........

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLD MAN!!!

This post is a couple of days late... but just wanted to wish my "man" a Happy Birthday! It is nice to always be able to call him old, and remind him I will always be younger than him! He is a great person and an incredible father! Just wanted to say some of the things I love about him since it is his moment:
He is always happy, there is rarely a mood swing from this man! He is ALWAYS positive and looks on the bright side, no matter what the situation. He is loving and sensitive (sorry had to tell everyone!) He loves to "pretend" to be handy around the house and is known to use duct tape to fix anything! He is loyal and dedicated to his family above anything else. His kids ADORE him! He is the first to jump up in the night if one of the kids wakes up. He is involved in everything I do around the house and ALWAYS helps with out me even asking. His got the most beautiful brown eyes which he passed along to to two of our kids! He is an all around good person and the love of my life! Happy Birthday Matty P!

HALLOWEEN 2008

This is my Anakin Skywalker, every year he chooses to be something from Star Wars~ Have you ever seen a mailman with a binky and a black eye?????

This is my little peacock- I love this costume, and Addy loves to dress up- She will wear this one for years!

Last but not least here is the UPS man with his dog in the background peeking out the door! The twins loved Halloween this year, they were so cute knocking on doors and so excited that they had "lots" of candy!

We had friends come over to eat before trick or treating.. this was our "witch's brew"! The kids loved it!!

AFTERMATH OF HALLOWEEN-

This is the scene at my house the day after Halloween 8 am! Look in the back ground of this picture and you can see Spencer hiding on the floor eating lollipop's as fast as he can!
