I miss Carley

Its amazing that I have had my daughter for seven years and a few months. Yesterday she left with her grandma Lou to go to Virginia for a week. For some reason I have had the hardest time. I guess its because she is with me most of the time. I am the one who gets her ready for school, takes her to school, picks her up from school, and spends most of my time with her. I love her to be with me. She is my friend, shopping buddy, tv watching buddy, exercise buddy, and food buddy. I feel kind of lost without her. I know I should be excited to have some alone time with Justin, and I am, but it just doesnt feel right. I keep thinking of all the fun things that we can do together when she gets home. I am sure she is having a great time in Blacksburg, but for now I will just be alone and kind of sad!

Its about time

I have been procrastinating, here are some random pics of the last few weeks. Carley is doing magic for our neighbors, its pretty funny to see how she does it. She sometimes needs a little help from Dad.
Bailee playing the wii
Carley had a sleepover with Morgan and Bailee. They woke up in the morning and played the wii. It was pretty funny. Carley and Morgan really liked it. Bailee just laid there and played, she did pretty good.
Fathers Day 2008 We had a BBQ at my Mom and Dads house. We bought my Dad a new BBQ Grill it is really nice. It was a nice day and wonderful afternoon. I had a bad toothache and forget medicine so Mom gave me some of hers. It was not just a wonderful afternoon, it was a GREAT DAY. God Bless oxycontin!!!
Here are all the Fathers in our family. They are quite the bunch of characters. After this they played poker and made the family room smell like real men!!

Carley's Dance recital

Carley had a dance recital. She did an amazing job. Me being the great Mom that I am forgot the video camera and the camera, so I took this video with my cell phone which only takes 20 seconds of video at a time. She is an amazing dancer. I am excited that she likes to dance.

Here goes nothing

So after all of my friends begging me and telling me that I need a blog, I have given in. So I will try my best to keep everyone up to date about our daily life. I thought since I just got back from Ireland I will post some of the pics. I had an amazing time, even though the engine plane I was on decided to quit working over the Atlantic ocean and then again the next day in Colorado, after and emergency night in Montreal.

This is Blarney Castle and me kissing the Blarney stone. It was 10 stories high. It was really fun.
