I Wish I Could See You One More Time
Come Walking Through My Door
But, I Know That Is Impossible
I Will Hear Your Voice No More
I Know You Can Feel My Tears
And You Don’t Want Me To Cry
Yet, My Heart Is Broken
Because I Can’t Understand Why
Someone So Precious Had To Die
I Pray That God Will Give Me Strength
And Somehow Get Me Through
As I Struggle With This Heartache
That Was Caused By Losing You

I continue to miss you more and more each day, you were my best friend. I love you and know that I will see you again someday.

Today on Memorial Day I think about all the loved ones I have lost and am thankful I had the chance to know them. You all are forever in my heart.

Sunshine

Just wanted to post a little something about Sunshine. Can I just say that it has got to be one of my most favorite things in the whole world. It seems to make everything better. Just being able to walk outside and see the bright blue sky and feel the warmth on your skin makes you smile. I LOVE MR. Sunshine and only wish you could stay around for a very, very long time!

Cooking

If you know me you know that I absolutely 100% LOVE to bake. It makes me so happy to see the finished product and know that I created that. It doesn't really matter what I bake it can be the most easiest cookie to the most extravagant cake or pie. I would love to be able to afford to take a ton of classes and learn even more than I already do. I want to be able to own a little bakery and have every person know that is the place to go for some really good treats! These creations are not perfect but none the less I am still proud of them. But the best is yet to come!

Pine Wood Derby

Tanner had his first Pine Wood Derby race last Wednesday night. He told Todd how he wanted it to look, Todd drew it out and then Grandpa Alan cut it out and had it painted. It turned out great!! Tanner thought it looked Awesome!! A day or so before the race I had a chat with Tanner about it being ok if he doesn't win. That not everybody is going to win and as long as you have fun that is all that matters. He seemed fine with that so I figured we wouldn't have any melt downs if he lost. The night finally came and he was super excited and wanted to go like 3 hours early! We had the grandparents come and watch and I think that made him even more excited. The car had to be no more than 5 oz. We weighed it on our food scale and it said 5.1 oz. Thinking that our scale is probably off we didn't worry about it. Well, we should have worried about it! The scale at the race told us that it was 5.2 oz!! OUCH that is way to heavy so luckily Todd brought his drill. So Todd and Grandpa Alan went to work carving out the bottom. Needless to say the bottom of the car no longer looks pretty. They did 6 races all together and then took the fastest time out of all those races. Tanner came in either 1st or 2nd on every race he did. His face was priceless when he won. He raised his hands above his head and said "YES"! It was super cute. Finally when all 6 races were complete they did there figuring and Tanner ended up in 2nd place! That was fantastic! He was very excited. It was a perfect ending to a not so perfect start with the car being over weight. But all that matters is he had a great time and we were able to spend some time together as a family!

Valentines Day

I have the most WONDERFUL husband in the whole world!! He sent me these beautiful flowers for Valentines day. He is the type of guy that doesn't just send the typical red roses. He goes more for the unusual. I told him I didn't want anything because I'm not one that is big on Valentines day. But he surprised me and I love him for that.
It just makes me think that I have to be the luckiest person in the world to be married to such a loving and caring guy. I couldn't ask for anything more!

I love you Babe!! Thanks for being my husband!

Crazy Family

All us grandkids on the Eggett side decided to try and get all our kids together to do a picture for my grandma so she would have one picture with all the great grandkids in it. Well, what were we thinking?? First off there was to many of us to do it at a studio so we tried to be photographers. Funny thing is none of us are and I don't think we ever will be! I don't think there is any human way possible to get that many kids to look in one direction all at the same time! But if nothing else it gave us a moment to step back and laugh at the crazy and wonderful family we have! As for the picture well,, we are still in the process of getting that done! (maybe)
