Always Have A Dream



Always have a dream
Forget about the days when its been cloudy,
but don't forget your hours in the sun.
Forget about the times you've been defeated,
but don't forget the victories you've won.
Forget about mistakes that you can't change now,
but don't forget the lessons that you've learnt.
Forget about misfortunes you encounter,
but don't forget the times you luck has turned.
Forget about the days when you've been lonely,
but don't forget the friendly smiles you've seen.
Forget about the plans that didn't seem to work out right,
but don't forget to always have a dream.

- Amanda Bradley

  7. and with that..warmer weather too!!
  8. Another Holiday coming up soon, so I can spend time with family.
  9. My son is smart and healthy.

Two For Tuesday's

  I couldn't resist. I came across these other pic's when I was weeding out empty folders and other things that I'm not using. I can't believe the change in only the past couple years. It's amazing how fast children grow! I'm so lucky to be part of such a wonderful family. I really feel blessed!   I can't believe my 'baby' will be 9 in July!! Time sure does fly. Like I said in a post a couple days ago, I can't wait until the whole family can get together again so we can get another pic of all of us. I can't believe how much our family has grown!
Cody was too excited about meeting his twin cousins Sarah & Jacob!
...then his new cousin Luke...
...And he couldn't believe how small new cousin Adams hands & feet were!!
Hope you all enjoy seeing the change as much as I have!

Friday Foto Finish Fiesta

Photo Phinish Phriday
This picture was taken about 6yrs ago, but It was a great time. It was Thanksgiving and the whole family was able to get together. Everybody lives at least 70 miles or so away from each other, all except my brother & his wife, they live in Tennessee. So they don't get up here to Michigan very much. This pic was also taken when Cody was the only grandchild. I always love it when everyone can get together! Makes for fun times. I just wish we all lived closer. I can't wait now to get another picture of the whole family, now that there are 5 grandchildren!! Cody loves being the oldest of them all. He plays so well with them!
Everyone take care & smile!!  ;0)

Happy Thanksgiving!

 Well, Turkey Day has come and gone for another year. It was a very nice day spent with family. Mike had to work, but that just comes with the line of work we do. Cody & I went over to to Mike's Mom & Dad's today. Both Nicci & Barb were there with their families. It was nice. The food of course was all good!! Mom & Dad cooked the turkey, stuffing, gravy, and potatoes. The rest of us brought the rest. My stomach still hurts!! We will be having Thanksgiving w/ my Dad & sister on Sunday.
 I can't believe no body took pictures today, I think we all had our cameras with us, it's just that no one thought about it. O'well, it happens.
 Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while, my computer decided to take a break from the Internet. It wasn't letting me connect, why I don't know. It seems to be up & running fine now!?
 Well I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I'm going to watch some Christmas movies with Cody & relax the rest of the evening. Everyone take care & smile!  ;0)

Is the summer almost over?!?

I can't believe the summer it almost over! Where did the time go? O'well, we have a few more weeks left to enjoy. The last couple weeks haven't been real productive, actually it's been kind of boring. Just the same ol' same ol', anybody have days (or weeks) like that? I just want to make sure it's not just me. I'd like to try and make it down to Greenfield Village with Cody, sometime within these next couple weeks or so. I do have to say, the summer has gone by fast, but it's been a good summer. Especially when it came to spending time with family. I'm glad we were able to spend so much time with them. Hopefully we will get the results of Cody's testing next week. We have an appointment on Wednesday of next week. It would be nice to have before school starts again. We will keep you updated. Until then .. Take care & smile ;0)
