MORE FUN

Although the pictures are not that good...can you tell we were having fun?? We to the family to the home town Carnival and we had more fun than we ever though possible. The first picture is Roberta and Mordachi on the Drop Zone. ALl of the older boys kept beggin Roberta to get on it with them. So, she said yes and Merrill bought her ticket. Imagine her surprize when they all chickened out and only Mordachi went on it with her. To quote Jesse, "That ride just freaks me out"...LOL Needless to say. Roberta laughed all the way down and Mordachi got off saying no more for me.

The next picture is of Joey on the little Roller Coaster. More road it with him, but only his little face showed up. We stayed for just about 4 hours, which is the longest we have ever stayed before. Like we said, great fun.

HAPPY 30th ANNIVERSARY!!!! How does one even begin to express the joy that I feel in my heart and soul for being blessed to have been married to the most wonderful man for 30 years? The bottom line, I can't Anything I write here is a feeble attempt to try to convey what is in my heart. My cup truly runneth over. My wishes, that both of my parents were alive to see this day. My daddy came close, my mom not so. They had their doubts about Merrill and in the end they both knew that he was all that I ever really needed and in him I could really have everything I ever dreamed of. How does one really reflect over the past 30 years of life. Life in and of itself is just amazing. We all go through up and downs. We all face day to day challenges that at times we are not sure we will ride it out. Many times we lose the battles, but in the end we really win the war. We have had to say goodbye to so many people that we loved and cherished. Some of those went in a proper time frame, many of tho...

FACING REALITY...and it is HARD

I am sitting here and wanting to write in our blog, but I feel that this post will be such a downer really. It is about intense feelings and sometimes feelings that are this intense are better left unsaid. Still, I want to say it, write it, get it all out. I miss my Daddy. I really just plain miss my Daddy. My Mom has been gone for over 21 years now and I did not think I could go on when she died. I mean she was my Mom for crying out loud. She taught me so very much. She taught me how to loose a child and survive it. Still she never lost a parent, while she was alive. When she died, I still had my daddy. I guess that is what made it all okay in the long run. Now, he is gone too. I miss him. I miss telling him things, both good and bad. I miss talking to him about the Holidays and about life in general. I miss trying to figure out what I was going to give him for Christmas, His Birthday and Father's day. I miss his laughter and how he was always joking around. I miss how he answered...
