Another Angel

Today we lost another child to Cancer. Daniel was only 7. My heart aches and brings back all those emotions of just a few short months ago. Why do we have to lose our children to cancer? I think I'm at the angry stage of healing.....stupid cancer.....

Summer's end

I can't believe the summer is coming to a close and school is about to begin. The last few weeks have been so busy with much to get done. Kaley is entering her first year of high school. In Logan it's 9th grade. I don't know who has more emotions me or her. She is excited for her high school days, she made the freshman volleyball team as the setter. She is so excited. Football games, Friends, friends, and more friends, and a little school work on the side. For me, she is my baby, my last one and she is now in high school. I am excited to cheer her on as she moves forward in all aspects of her life. She truly is an amazing young women.

This weekend we were able to use a dear friends condo at bear lake. This was a much needed break for our family. Shayna, Shawn, and my sweet grandson Jaxon came with us. Although it was great to be together, I thought of Tanner often, one was missing, and for me there was a huge empty place in my heart. I tried hard not to cry or mention it, but I felt the others noticed it as well. I thought of when the kids were small and we would take them to the beach and they would play for hours. Sand buckets, shovels, seashells, lunch, floaty tubes, and root beer. What a treasured memory. I have a picture of Tanner and Kaley sitting on the beach facing the water with their backs toward me, Tanner's hand is on Kaley's back taking care of her. I love that picture. So many cherished memories...lock them in side and hold them close...they help me get by another day.

We took Kaley and went to the pickleville play "Joseph and the amazing technicolored dream coat. It was so fun, the dancing, singing and laughs were just what we needed. Kaley even had a great time, except for the man sitting next to her that fell asleep in her arm rest. Kind of funny.
All in all it was a good trip. Thank you so much Tina for the use of your condo, we enjoyed our time together. .... A day at a time....

Love Kristi

Green beans

Yesterday was a busy day with lots of running around. Kaley was selling hot dogs for the 3rd day in a row trying to earn money for her trip to nationals in the spring. What dedication she has had to spent six hours a day in the hot trailer selling a hot dog and a drink for 35 cents. Not much was raised but she put the effort in.


As I ran my many errands a trip to the grocery store was the final stop. Not a good thing to do on Saturday. Macey's was having there case lot sale so I picked up a few things. A case of corn was on the list, right next to it was the sliced green beans...tears came, Tanner loved sliced green beans, I guess I won't be buying to many of those any more. It's the little things that catch you by surprise, middle of the store crying over green beans. Don't think this sadness will ever end. Some day I hope to just control it a little better.
