Weddings and the end of 2008



So I ended 2008 with the last of the four weddings I was involved with this year. This year was fantastic....busy and too fast but fantastic. Just how I thought all my years with my family would be. 3 years ago I thought things would never get back to normal but now (and only now) after I look back over the year I see that it was just normal. Every wedding was important and individually would have made for a great year but we had; Jeff's cousin Casey, whom I adore, Jeff's brother James and my new sister-in-law Lauren, whose love is peaceful and constant, my best friend Lisa and Jeff's best friend Tom, who have been a godsend to us over the years and lastly my baby sister Crystal ad her marine husband Tim, who are wonderful people with a bright future. So I wish them all the love in the world, I pray that there worst day is something they can be with each other to support and that there best days are still ahead. I think this everyday....I hated three years ago but I am so fortunate to know each and every day how important my husband, children, family and friends are to me. I am very very blessed and very helpful and happy for what I have. This is going to be a good year!!!

finally

So I wanted to start this blog before, many times, and I have procrastinated. First because of my lack of time, than because I thought I had nothing to say and lastly because I decided I was a terrible writer. But I have decided that I really need a place to get my thoughts down. Not a place to update anyone on my life or give the world any fantastic insight, just a moment in time for me to record my thoughts somewhere. I am sure I will reread some items and say was that me? what was I thinking? or why would I write that? In all honesty we do that with our friends and spouses so what is the difference. The written word is forever but the spoken word can always be remembered however we want to interpret it. So that is it...woohoo I finally started. Nothing big but I started my new year and I started my blog...I feel like a success!!!!
Happy New year to all!!!
