My Life/ Thinking Back.. 2008-02-06 07:07:00 I have a new obsession... I love all the survey's on MySpace. Yesterday I filled one out called "How I met John". It was all questions about how you met your significant other. Well last night on the ride home from Muskegon I started telling John about the survey and my son and his big ears started asking questions about how I met his Daddy. So John and I tell him the story about how my
My Life/ Back to normal... 2008-01-31 11:03:00 We ended up getting that nasty stomach bug that seems to be going around. My Sister and Emma had it in Texas and brought it home to us. It went down the line, first hitting Junior, then Lukas, I thought we were in the clear by Monday but thats what I get for thinking. Monday night Mackenzie was first to get it and within a matter of hours we all ended up having it, which was very rare for us
My Life/ Uncle Todd would be so proud.... 2008-01-23 07:00:00 When Tyler was born I swore that he would never play with toy guns, army men or anything related, but as you can see from the picture I was full of it. I remember my Dad telling me I was crazy, all boys play cop's and robbers. I had this prefect image in my mind about how to raise a boy, well let me tell you by the age of two, that image slowly drifted away. When Tyler was little Todd was living Read more:Uncle
My Life/ First Date 2008-01-21 13:57:00 Friday we had Movie and popcorn day here with all the kids. Isaac got to pick the movie which was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, this Friday is girls choice so I have a feeling it will be Highschool Musical or Bratz Movie. Anyway after making the popcorn Aunt Katie & I start passing out bags to all the kids and we notice Hailey and Isaac cuddled on the couch. I quick got my camera and asked Read more:First

My Life/ A Look Back.. 2008-01-19 19:50:00 As many of you already know I am going through all my old pictures and scanning them onto my computer so I thought I might share a few of my favorites every now and then. John & I were looking through them earlier and could not believe how fast time is flying.
My Life/ What a Day!! 2008-01-17 18:30:00 I am starting to think that things are just never going to get easier for my family. Believe me I am not asking for a pity party because I am well aware that things could get alot worse and I know others who are battling much harder things in life, but my family is falling apart. My Mother is wasting away to nothing, she weighs less than me. Never have I seen her this skinny. The cause she tells
My Life/ So I really am a terrible Mom... 2008-01-16 08:10:00 Once again I am on Tyler's list. Monday night he had a terrible tooth ache and I gave him some Motrin, well it really did not help much and by morning he was crying because it hurt so bad, I told him I would call the dentist and try to get him in. I gave him more medicine and sent him to school. Well out of site, out of mind happened and I forgot. When Tyler came home he was in such pain he was
My Life/ Tyler got his hair cut 2008-01-13 19:42:00 After about of month or so of going back and forth Tyler
finally gave in and got his hair cut. I really liked his hair long but John did not. So we went to a place out by the mall on Saturday called Sport Clips. Kinda expensive but both of my men loved the atmosphere. The look on Ty's face when she started cutting. He had told me before that he had better like it or he was not going to go to
My Life/ A Day Without Power... 2008-01-11 18:26:00 Just another exciting day around here. We got a snow storm last night that knocked out power in are area. Well I thought we got lucky because for once we did not lose ours. As always I spoke to soon right before lunch we lost ours. The kids were freaking out because they thought for sure it was going to thunder and lightning because usually when you lose power it's from a thunder storm. So I
My Life/ So much for Relaxing 2008-01-08 13:15:00 So last night did not turn out as planned but when does it really? I take a shower and get into my PJ's and my youngest sister called to inform us that we were under a tornado warning. Are you kidding me in January a tornado warning. Anyway I did not know that we were under a warning because John and Ty were playing a game on the TV, so I called Lea and told her which she knew nothing about
My Life/ Thankful... 2008-01-07 17:10:00 I am so thankful Mackenzie's levels are normal. It is all I thought about all day and finally around 2pm I called and I was so darn happy I could have cried. After Mackenzie and I left the lab this morning we went to Meijer's so that she could pick out something for having to get her blood drawn again. She did a great job and was very brave, this time she sat on my lap and had it down, Daddy Read more:Thankful
My Life/ Big Day Tomorrow... 2008-01-06 18:46:00 Tomorrow is the day Kenzie is dreading, she has to have her blood taken again to check her potassium level. We are praying that it has gone up otherwise the poor girl is going to need further testing. I have been trying not to think about it all weekend but it is hard not to I just want her to get better. Poor Tyler still feels like crap he can't eat because it still feels like things are Read more:Big Day
My Life/ Not off to a good start!!! 2008-01-03 20:46:00 Well so far 2008 has not been so great. I took Mackenzie to the doctor today because she said her heart keeps pounding (her words). Anyway all last night I could hardly sleep I kept thinking what if something is wrong with her heart, I tend to always think the worst out of habit. So I take her today and the doctor checks her out and said her heart sounds fine but gave her an EKG anyway which
Miss Me - But Let Me Go 2008-03-16 18:10:00 When I come to the end of the road
and the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little - But not too long
and not with your head bowed low
Remember the love that we once shared
Miss me - But Let Me Go.
For this is a journey that we all must take
and each must go alone
It's all part of the Master's plan
Thanks... 2008-03-18 19:07:00 I've been struggling with what to write on here latley, I am struggling with this whole one year mark of Todd's death. I can't get past it all of a sudden, it seems like it is all my sister and I talk about. She wants to skip the whole Easter thing this year and I can't say I blame her. Easter falls so early I feel like we have to re-live that terrible day twice. First of course on Easter Read more:Thanks
My New Nephew.. Alexander Robert... 2008-03-22 20:50:00 I am very happy to announce that I have a new nephew born today, AlexanderRobert
Carnes, he weighed 6lbs 10 oz, and was 20 inches long. He is so very cute. He came about 2 weeks early but it was such a nice surprise for him to arrive before Easter. My soon to be sister in law Margie looks great and is feeling wonderful. They are such a cute family. I think he has Tyler's nose but it is to
My Invitation.... 2008-03-21 09:38:00 Here is a copy of just one of the email invites I have been receieving. On April 9, 2008 will make the five year mark of the fall of Baghdad, obviously I will not be attending but it is so nice to know that our hero's are still being recognized.

Can you believe that Todd is one of these 4,000 Soldiers? 2008-03-24 12:15:00 U.S. officials said Monday they will press forward in the fight against extremists in Iraq a day after the overall U.S. death toll in the five-year conflict rose to 4,000.
The White House called the grim milestone "a sober moment" and said President Bush spends time every day thinking about those who have lost their lives in battle.

My Life/ Tragedy
My Easter
did not turn out as planned. In fact today will be a day my family will never forget. At about four in the afternoon, my mom called my house wanting my sister to return home asap. My mom just lives down the road from me and that is where my sister and her daughter have been staying while her husband has been in Iraq. My husband went with her
John's new Home... 2008-03-29 21:26:00 Well it's official we now own a camping trailer. After years of waiting and wishing we finally got one. We have been tent camping ever since Tyler has been 3, and those of you that have ever tent camped with kids no that this is not any easy thing to do. After last summer's camping trip when our tent flooded after a heavy rain, I swore I would never tent camp again. So after talking with my
Hitting Rock Bottom.... 2008-04-03 19:52:00 I called my Uncle tonight, the one that tried to kill himself months ago, it was his 51st birthday yesterday and I forgot to call him. I actually remembered it yesterday but I really was to afraid to call. I have been hearing that things have not gotten any easier for him these past months. His son stopped by my house this morning to kind of bring me up to date on everything that has been Read more:Hitting
