Little Video

From

Here is a little video I made from our Spring Break. We didn't go anywhere exciting, no big trips, just family time, which was great. We did venture over to the Children's Museum and to the Zoo on the one nice day. It was funny when we went to the zoo we ran into about 20 people we knew. It was crazy, but it was the first beautiful day of the week so everyone was out. Brayden and I had a date night on Thursday which I truly loved. I think it is important to be able to spend one on one time with each child - we had a great time. A lot of staying up late and spending time with Grandma's - I believe Brayden had a great Spring Break! And now it is back to the grind, trying to get him into bed has been a chore, needless to say, but it really doesn't make sense since he only has to go three days this week with it being Holy Week. 

We were all at mom's on Friday night for our annual Fish Fry. We use to go down to Knights of Columbus in Ludlow but ever since dad passed away, it is too hard to go down there without him. So we go and stink up mom's house with the deep fryers and the cooking of dad's famous beer battered fish! We had a great time - and it is the fourth week of soccer and still no soccer games. It seems to always rain on Friday night or Saturday morning just when we need to play - looks like we may have to start playing during the week.

This week marks, two years since Uncle Wally passed away - two years! I can't believe it, the time goes by so fast, but the pain and the heartache of loosing someone never does - it is still there. I have been praying and thinking of all of them and our families as we celebrate his life and try to find peace in him being gone.  When days like this come around it really brings up those moments in our lives and relive them all over again. For me, though and I know for mom and probably for others, sometimes it doesn't have to be a moment, it just comes and when those thoughts are there, especially for me, the thoughts of dad's last days and how he looked stay in my head and it takes everything I have to get them out of my mind. No rhyme or reason, they just come - Ugh!

Uncle Wally we miss you and we know you are in a better place but it doesn't make the heartache any easier.

I hope everyone had a great weekend and is ready for the warm weather this week, finally, yes there will be rain, but it is suppose to be a lot nicer.

Enjoy the little bit of the weekend you have left and have a Great Monday.

Miss and love you dad ~ so much.

Much love to all,
