Colby
Haylee

When we came up from the beach we sat down for a minute before we decided where to go eat that night and looked over and Colby and Haylee were passed out on the couch. They look so sweet.

Haylee is looking at Aiden like he is crazy!
Here is Colby & Sarah diggin holes under the sailboat!!
Our little man!

She finally did it, My little sister Natalie graduated last night from the big HYT!!! We are all so proud of her. Chris, Colby, my mom & Nana all went to watch her walk across that stage with that big smile. I was a little emotional knowing that she is growing up and is going to be going to college in August. I know that our Dad is smiling down from Heaven and he is so proud of her. I will be posting some pictures of last night later b/c I forgot my camera and we are leaving for the BEACH!!!!! We will be staying with one of my best friends Christie her husband Chris and the 2 little ones Aiden & Haylee. When we get back there will be many pictures you to see. Have a great Holiday weekend and be safe!

I have just had my dad on my mind these past few weeks alot and I miss him so much. I just try to think of all of the good memories we had and how much we loved him and how much he loved us. I was going through some files on my computer and remembered this poem.
I found not to long after my dad passed away. The first time I read it I thought it just fit. It is beautiful and I just wanted to share it with you.

"AN ANGEL WALKS BESIDE ME"
An angel walks beside me,I feel him everyday,
he helps me through lives ups and downs,and whatever comes my way.
He guides me down the road of life,and lights the darkest roads,
he picks me up and carries me,when I can not bear the load.
He helps to ease the pain I feel,he mends my spirit, too,he holds my hand,
and shelters me,and gives me courage and strength, too.
He speaks to me with words of love,and he listens to my pleas,
he was sent here from the lord above,to guide and comfort me.
I know he's always watching,though his form I can not see,
its a peace I feel deep in my heart,that leads me to believe.
An angel walks beside me,I feel blessed everyday,
that the presence of this angel,will never go away.

I love this picture of us. It was beautiful at the beach the whole week we went. I am hoping and praying it be be just as pretty when we go back this year in July.

I had to post this picture. This is Colby when he was 3, these were taken at the daycare in Hayden he attended. He is getting so big and is growing so fast. It seems like yeaterday he was a little one now he is 8!!!

Chris' mom Marie took this picture and I thought it was so cute. He looks like a tough guy in it.

This is Chris & his little sister Millie. She won for her grade in Miss Fultondale !! She looked so pretty, as soon as all of the girls came out on stage I told Chris and his mom she had it in the bag and I was right.....

We put some new flowers out at my dad's grave for the spring they were so pretty. I miss him more and more as each day passes but I know that he is in a much better place, the cancer is gone, he is not in any pain and that we will all be together again. Colby is holding up really well, he does have his times but Chris & I are always there to make it better. Nat on the other hand doesnt really like to talk about it alot. It has been a tough year for all of us but those people who try to hurt us only make us stronger!!!!!!!!
