Dodger

So I am going to try to not cry with this post. This is Dodger the best dog any one and I mean anyone could ever ask for. He was my best friend growing up when I got ditched, my shoulder to cry on, my buddy running jogging, my protector and if he didnt like someone I trusted his growl. He passed away late October. He was sick and lost a bunch of weight. We had him for 15 yrs so it was like loosing a part of us. He played fetch, tag and hide and go seek. He loved the kids and when they were babies if they cried he was the first one in to check on them. Truly there will not another dog like him..

Utah Oct 2013

So while we were in Utah in Oct 2013 Robb wanted family pictures. Kristin and Jake, I just love Kristin, she is just like a sister to me, sweetest sister in law you could ever ask for. :)
Oct 2013 We were at a friends wedding, had to use that we were dressed up to get a picture :)
Cutest girls

My Parents

2013 my parents, so My parents have always been my rock. The one the left hand the other the right hand. Jack and Jill. I've always looked to them for love, for comfort, for everything. Being a child I believe we put our parents on this pedestal and immortalize them without giving a second thought that they are human like us. I learned that year that they are humans, and we all can love one other through our faults and mistakes. Being a family is about caring, sharing, laughing, crying, and most importantly forgiving. I love my family so very much and am thankful for them everyday.

Steph and Corys Wedding

July 2013 My older sister Stephanie got married :) She is such an amazing sister and can overcome anything that is put in her way. I love all my sister dearly and in one way or another I look up to each one of them for different things.

Jakes Birthday 2013

So the Blackhawks won the cup for 2013 and as always I do a blackhawk cake for Jake. He went and hung out with some friends but before he got up I had Matti and Nana help with the Hallway, and Matti had to help Jake out :) Adley in Jakes arms for cake time. He is such a great uncle to all these little girls :)

My Birthday

So we did Shark reef for my Bday. I love the sting rays and Jellys. We had a blast playing with the rays and as always some cake. Little Lily wanted to sit with me. Love my Nieces ( sorry so short and bunch of pictures, trying to play catch up)

Utah in May 2013

So This was when I went up to Utah before my birthday. I try to get up there as much as I can as my nephews (aka my boys) and the twins (aka my twins) ( really my sister Stephanies kids) grow up so fast and I cannot get enough of them and my whole family. I feel like I get to recharge when I go up there.
