So You Say You Want PEACHES?!




Wow Peaches and more peaches! Yesterday we went peach picking at a little place about 40 minutes away. They let me drive right up to the orchard trees. Ryan even picked a few peaches. He was very excited! As you can see in the picture Grandma is standing by a few baskets of peaches. We actually picked a little over 53 pounds. Yup, I am crazy! I talked Grandma into baking a few things today with the peaches. Like peach cobbler and a peach crumb cake thing she has the recipe for. We might even can peaches not really sure though. Sarah and her friend went picking with us. They both picked the most. Sarah picked over 13 pounds and her friend picked a little over 12 pounds. After we picked all of the peaches we went out to eat. Ryan was very excited as he asked where we were going. I told him he had to wait and see but he didn't like that idea. He kept naming the resturants we had passed on our way to the orchard. He finally said Cracker Barrel and I said maybe. You should have seen him. He started yelling and shouting like he won the lottery. He couldn't wait to get there. After we had been seated and ordered Ryan decided he wanted to hold Great Grandma's hand. He reached over and just grabbed her hand and held it. Grandma said he really held her hand. He didn't want to let it go. Now Ryan doesn't really just grab someones hand and hold it. If he does this to you he really likes you. He might grab your hand and then let it go quickly but not just sit there and hold your hand. He made Great Grandma smile.

Alot has happened in the last two months. First let me start with Sarah and her DEBUT singing. She is in a class where they learn from music and they put show on. She loves singing (I have no idea where she got that just kidding). I knew she could sing but I didn't really know she could really sing. I was sitting in the audience that first night of the show all proud but when she got up to sing the last song of the night I was BLOWN AWAY! She had me speechless. I hope she makes you speechless as well. This class is really a nice class. She has alot of friends in the class. I have been given glances into the woman Sarah is becoming and it takes my breath away. Wow is all I can say! It doesn't look like the video is going to work tonight so I will have to do it tom. after I get home from work. Wish it would save! I was going to put up one of Noah as well but I guess I will have to do it tom as well. He got to sing at Church with the Adult choir. He sang Away in a Manger verses 1 ...

Cheering 101

I hope you enjoyed the video. I went to Sarah's game this past Saturday to watch her cheer. She did good and you could hear her even when she turned around. This being her first year cheering for football she seems very interested in it. Who knows she might just be a fan soon! Okay Uncles.... she doesn't have one team she likes yet, so recruit her for your team. Uncle Teddy I think she Might be leaning to the Cowboys because her friend likes them. You just never know!

Letters from the Heart

How do I say goodbye to my mom. How can I do that and not hurt? Memories keep coming to me and I laugh or I cry mostly I cry. I cry because I didn’t write down that favorite recipe she always made when we came home. I cry because I should have had more patience with her. I cry because I won’t be able to sit and have tea with her. Ever. Never again. I cry for myself. I cry for my brothers. I cry for my children and their children. How do I make this hurt any less than it does? How do I make the tears stop flowing? Is there a way to make them stop? Maybe laughter. Maybe that is the way. Remember the good times. Remember hotdog soup. Remember frying pans knocking someone out. Remember the car rides to grandmas house. Remember the summer trips. Laughing helps but not for long. Family around me will be sure to help. Getting together and celebrating her. That will help. I now know that nothing will help. I think this hurt will last the rest of my life. I don’t want this. I want my mom....
