Happy 5th Anniversary!
~ Us 5 years ago ~
Wow ~ Happy 5th Anniversary, Love!
Can you believe it has already been 5 years?
We have created a lot of memories, combined two families and had Peyton. We have had many laughs, cries, fights, and yet still managed to spend it in love! We have spent many nights dancing, dreaming, talking about everything and nothing, preparing for court & living through drama, planning for our future not only for our children, but for ourselves. We have almost called it quits a few times, but I am very grateful we have made it through. I didn’t realize how hard making a blended family truly work would be; but having you, Curtis and Kasey in my life makes it all worth it. I want you to know that I LOVE YOU and am grateful for the wonderful husband, father, provider, protector, and best friend you continue to be. Thank you for your unconditional love, patience, and support.

CRAPOLA ~
Well the day started out being a wonderful day. Peyton and I walked Alanna up to her line at school this morning (which Alanna loves). Toresa and Gianna came over so we all could go to Tara’s house (we love to save $$$ on gas). Tara had graciously agreed to cut mine and Peyton's hair and then we stayed and played with Aidan & Kaitlyn. We really enjoyed spending the day with family; even Trista and Brooklyn came over and hung out. All was good ... Quiznos was yummy! We made it back in time for Peyton to enjoy his swim lessons, and then it was time to pick kids up from school.
This is when the day went south. On our way from leaving the school, still in the school zone, a guy was speeding (on the opposite side of the road). I get really irritated to see people speeding in school zones. Don’t they know that kids are around and they comprise safety? I got really irritated when he hit smack into us as he tried to speed into the bus loading area. It scared the crapola out of all of us, and I didn’t stay as calm as I would like to say I should have. I think the first thing out of my mouth after I had to kick myself out of the driver door because it was smashed in and wouldn’t open was “What is your problem? Don’t you know this is a school zone and you’re speeding into a bus loading area?” (OK, not proud of this …) I looked to see if the kids were ok, looked at our van and then the next thing that ran through my mind was “we are lucky everyone is ok, CRAP now I need to let Carl, Amber & Tara know that we got into an accident”. Then I did what I always do when I get super stressed … I cried, and cried. (People probably thought I was being a baby … The last thing I want to do right now is be without a vehicle since our van is not drivable). I am not sure how fast he was going, but I am grateful I wasn’t going faster 10 mph.
I met Megan Kutch, she was the first to pull up to see if I needed anything. I just cried that my cell battery was dead and I couldn’t call anyone. She was so nice, gave me a great smile and said here is my cell, call whoever you need. I called the police and then Carl. He said “It is ok, I will be right there. I love you.” I LOVE HIM!!! Megan even stuck around to see if there was anything else I might need. I am very grateful for her willingness to spend her time to make sure we were ok. I would like to say “THANK YOU MEGAN!”
I would also like to thank Shayne for stopping to see if were ok, and for calling Amber to let her know what had happened and to see if she’d come over. I really appreciate your help getting through initial shock as I made calls on your cell and cried. “THANK YOU SHAYNE!”
Amber & Shannon ~ Thank you for taking Peyton and keeping him for us. Thank you for getting Alanna to her swim lesson … and come to find out for altering one of your swimsuits to fit Alanna perfectly. Her hair was pulled back, she had flip flops and a towel … I can’t say THANK YOU enough for treating our kids so well! “THANK YOU AMBER & SHANNON!”
Tye ~ Thank you for getting Kaitlyn safely back home to her mom and dad. Sorry Kaitlyn, maybe your parents will someday let you drive with Aunt Tami again ... and have a sleep over. "THANK YOU TYE"
I’d also like to thank everyone that took the time to stop and see if we were ok!
The van got towed just in time for us to pick Alanna up from swim class; and then to pick up Peyton. Carl, being the awesome husband that he is, wouldn't consider me cooking dinner tonight. Off to Fat Burger we went ... I am not sure I want to admit that I had a baby fat, fat fries, and then to top it off a chocolate shake with whip cream.

This is our van ...
