Happy Anniversary Baby...I've Got You on My Mind

Jim and I will celebrate 6 years of marriage tomorrow. (January 31st) We always talk about how fast AR is growing up and I never realized how fast the years add up. Our wedding was perfect for us. Not too big and not too small. I gave my mom almost complete control. She loved it and the planning for me was pretty much stress free! We got married in Greenwood and we were blessed with all of our AL family and friends joining us. Even though we were both 27, I look back at that day and think we were babies. Heck...who I am kidding...we still act like babies. :-)
We've been through some wonderful things...(new house, new cars, and Ann Rogers). We've also been through some tough times...especially the past few months. However, we've been through both together and that is all that matters. He can still make me die out laughing in the middle of an arguement! He is so funny. I am so proud of the husband and father he is today and hope I've been the best wife I can be to him. Our marriage is truly a blessing from the Lord.
He woke me up this morning singing the Anniversary song from my favorite radio host, Rick and Bubba! Happy Anniversary Baby...I've got you on my mind!!!

The No Snow Day

We all know about the Snow Day that we had to take in AL, yet no snow ever came. I was beyond disappointed. I LOVE SNOW! I was also so very sad that we wasted a weather day at school and there was no weather! We have to make it up instead of having a long weekend in April. Oh well...life is rough. :-)  It started to flurry and I thought it was the start of the "big" snow. I bundled AR up and we headed out to catch snowflakes and watch it snow.



Despite being disappointed, AR and I did enjoy a rare day home together and she looked cute all bundled up for a blizzard! :-)

My Hero



After 4 months in ICU Jim's Dad has gone home to be with Jesus. Words cannot express what this man has meant to us. He was an amazing man. One of the smartest men ever with a sense of humor that kept us all in stitches. His love for his family was shown by the HUGE grin that he couldn't wipe of his face anytime the family was gathered. He was extremely proud of all of his kids and wrapped around the fingers of his grandchildren. Ann Rogers adored him and it hurts to know she won't grow up with him. However, I do know that we all have a guardian angel now protecting us. His love for Sherry was beyond measure. He spoiled her like all women deserve.  I am beyond grateful that the Lord put me in the family in order to know and love Judge. He ranks right up there with my father in terms of love and respect. He accepted me from day one and was on my side in most arguments. :-) I hope he knew how much he meant to me.
I don't know how we will make it without him and it all seems so surreal. However, I know that he laid the foundation for this family and left us with a legacy to carry on for a lifetime.
Judge...you are missed every second of every day and will be forever. Thank you for the life you gave your family and the love you showed us all. We miss you and We Love You!!!!
