If it's not fun, don't do it!

This is a new motto of Brandon's and mine, and he's taking this to heart. For his 30th birthday last month I surprised him with a trip up north with 8 of his best friends. Here is a wonderful picture of them preparing to ride hundreds of miles on the snowmobiling. Brandon said it was one of the best surprises ever! I was very proud between myself and all of the guys that we pulled it off.






This weekend again he continued on with the motto by going sturgeon fishing in Wisconsin. He again had a blast with Korey and Jay and brought home TWO five feet sturgeons. Pictures to come soon. Congrats guys! Live it up!

Anniversary Wishes

Yesterday marked what would have been my parents 28th wedding anniversary. Unfortunately, my dad's health collapsed just short of their 25th anniversary. It's been just 3 years we've missed the presence of our dad. Although he's not here to celebrate the anniversary, it doesn't mean that we forget the blessing their marriage brought to our lives.

Out of their marriage came my "little" sister. She's a wonderful friend, nurse, and comedian in our family. We all know that marriage isn't easy and we all make mistakes, but I live remembering what made their marriage work and I strive to relish the wonderful moments my marriage brings me. Happy Anniversary mom and dad! May your love live on forever in your hearts!
