Missing Mom

Today is the 2nd anniversary of one of the worst days of my life. The day I lost my mother. It is for selfish reasons alone that I am so sad. I know she is having a wonderful time dancing around heaven. I can even imagine her doing it. But I miss her so...There are so many things that haven't happend yet that I want to share with her. My husband starting his new career that she was so supportive of, our kids, our happiness....

No one hugs quite like Mom.

Gettysburg!!

So, I recently got a comment from a friend, "I love looking at your blog!" and I thought, shoot, I haven't updated that thing in ages!! The good news is, Chris and I have not been bumps on a log lately, well if we have, at least not at home...

This past weekend, we loaded up the car and headed out of town to Gettysburg, PA. Everyone I tell this automatically starts reminising about school trips and childhood shenanigans. We had a good time. We picked the loveliest day to wander around the battlefield and turned a two hour auto tour into about four and a half. We leapt on rocks and climbed scary look out towers. It never crossed our minds that someone afraid of heights (Chris) would struggle on the towers. They look so harmless and not that tall from the ground! We both were a little queasy towards the top, but made it and oh what a view!

It was a nice trip. We needed the time together and the R&R. More to come....
