Moment of truth...

  • if you saw your problems in a pile with everyone elses you would probably grab yours back.
  • all that really matters is that you loved
  • growing old beats the alternative--dying young
  • your kids get only one childhood.
  • forgive
  • frame every so called disaster with these words "in 5 years will this matter?"
  • no one is in charge of your happiness except you.
  • get rid of anything that isnt beautiful, useful or brings you joy.
  • Dont compare your life to others, you have no idea what their journey is all about.
  • its ok to let your kids see you cry.
  • Make peace with your past so it doesn't screw up the present.
  • Your job won't take care of you when you are sick; but your family will, keep in touch!
  • Just keep taking that next small step.
  • Life isn't fair, but it's still good!

Halloween Photos...FINALLY!







































Finally I figured out how to get these darn pictures on here. Well, I shouldn't pretend I did anything. I just got lucky mostly. Anyhow, now there are some photos of the kids for their 2009 halloween. And even one with their great grandpa Lawrance, although after 3 trys we decided his eyes were just destined to be closed in this picture!!!
The kids had a great time and even though I pretty much HATE halloween, I have to admit it was a fun day and evening. We spent the day at my moms house and got the kids ready there, then went to a few houses trick-or-treating, mostly family and close friends. The kids got plenty of candy and we headed home...
nothing too exciting, but everyone seemed to be satisfied and happy. :)
