To Lindsay

Well, just a few more days and you will give birth to our 4th beautiful grand-daughter, Sophie...
You will do great, even tho you may be a little afraid of what happens on Wednesday. After all the hard work,look at what your reward shall be, a beautiful baby girl! Those rewards will continue thru your life, lots of smiles, laughs, hugs, boo-boos, tears, going to Kindegarten,dates,graduations, baptisms, and marriage one day.
One day you will realize what I have gone thru not wanting to "let go" when your girls are your age. Wanting to be there for all the important and fun things in your girls lifes, to watch them grow every day. Thank you for letting me and your dad be there for all those things!
You were my baby, I will always have that bond with you. I see things in Madalyn that remind me of you when you were that age, her love of school, reading, making sure everything is perfect, and going to McDs, and I see other things in Loraly that remind me of you of being her age, her smile, her eyes light up like yours did, sometimes her temper ....And I am sure little Sophie will remind me of you too!
I am so excited to love that baby, to be the best grandmother or "Ma" to her that I can be, I can't wait to hold her, to love her, smell her, see what her big sisters do as they meet her for the very first time! We will wait patiently outside with Madalyn and Loraly and give them all the love they need that day so you will not have to worry about them.
I have enjoyed shopping with you for Sophie, I know she will love all the fun and pretty things we have bought. And believe me, there will be lots more to come!
You know just how much your dad and I love you and your family, we will always be there for you! We are so proud of you!

To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven;

A time to be born,
And a time to die;

A time to plant,
And a time to pluck what is planted:

A time to kill,
And a time to heal;

A time to break down,
And a time to build up;

A time to weep,
And a time to laugh;

A time to mourn,
And a time to dance;

A time to cast away stones,
And a time to gather stones;

A time to embrace,
And a time to refrain from embracing;

A time to gain,
And a time to lose;

A time to keep,
And a time to throw away;

A time to tear,
And a time to sew;

A time to keep silence,
And a time to speak;

A time to love,
And a time to hate;

A time of war,
And a time of peace.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work God does from beginning to end.

Ecclesiastes3

Our hearts are with you during this time of your life.

Happy "23" Anniversary to our sweet friends, Dale & Doug

Thursday, November 22, 2007

What I am Thankful for this year

Memories of my daddy...

My husband and his love for me...

My sweet and growing family...

My memories of my children growing up, their love for going to church and Bible class every Sunday and Wednesday...for all who taught them and installed their love of Christ in their heart...

Our church now, although we don't attend as much as we need to, I find myself as I grow older needing and trusting the Lord more everyday!

Smiles and hugs and kisses from Kaitlyn, Madalyn, & Loraly...

A first lost tooth today!

My husbands job, he provides more than I have ever needed. And doesn't complain when I spend way too much!

Time off to spend together, he doesn't get to take a lot of his vacation time so when he does it is so precious...

Our new house, we have never owned but one other home and we are so blessed to have this house with more than enough room for our friends and family to be here any time they want...

Our family having a big delicious feast today! And the kitchen all clean tonight.
Left-overs for the next day.

Phone calls from Amber, Cam, & Lindsay--usually every night.

MDO on Tues/Thurs and all those little 3yr olds that keep me so busy!

Starbucks with Loraly on Tues/Thurs on the way to MDO...

Getting to pick up Madalyn from school on the way home from MDO on Tues/Thurs. I love to see her pretty smile when she gets in the car.

Weekends when Kaitlyn gets to come and spend time with us!

Disney with Kaitlyn this year.

Memories of past cruises with my husband and good friends, Dale & Doug...and looking forward to another cruise this next year.

Paul--what an impact his short but wonderful life had on me and my family!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Monday, October 29, 2007


Leticia is a friend from my childhood, we went to church together and also school...She was in my wedding party. On Fri, she turned the BIG 50---her little sister, Melissa gave her a big party at the church annex on Sat--we could not attend because we were having Loralys party here so, we went to church in Irving with papa and Letitcias family on Sunday and all went to eat afterwards together!







On Sat, we had a big "Minnie Mouse" themed Birthday party for Loraly.
We rented a big jump house and had a pinata full of candy along with lots of cake and presents for the birthday girl.
Lindsay had decided to have her party a little early, actual birthday is Nov17, because of baby Sophie coming...

For Sophie


on Sunday, Oct we had a small baby shower for Lindsay...several of her good firends came, she got a few really nice gifts for Sophie...now, we just need Sophie to be here!
I can't wait for your Birthday, to get to hold you, love you and see your sisters reaction to their new baby sisiter who have they have been waiting patiently for...
