**Rest In Peace Aunt Connie**

(Third from the left)

I cannot believe she is gone! She has been through alot the past month. October 3 she went into the hospital because she was really really sick. They found out she had a hole in her stomach so they rushed her into surgery. While they were performing the surgery they found a large tumor. They removed it along with part of her stomach. The tests from the tumor came back positive for cancer. The doctors told her it was a very rare and aggresive form of cancer but that they believe they got all of it out in surgery but they would not be able to preform a full body scan until she was fully recovered from the surgery. After that she had one or two more surgeries. She wanted to go home so bad but everytime they were going to release her she would end up running a fever so they would have to keep her a few more nights. She was finally released from the hospital over the weekend. This morning she fell getting out of bed, hit her head and was unresponsive and not able to breathe on her own. They got her to the hospital and she was having heart problems. At about 1:30 pm she passed.


Its hard to believe. I am glad she didnt have to suffer for long though. Watching my uncle go through what he went through with his cancer I did not want another family member to have to go through all that.
Connie, I will never be able to look at a cup of crushed ice without thinking about you. I have so many memories of coming to your house in Salt Lake. Thank you for putting up with me all those times I would come stay with you. You will deeply be missed by so many! I love you and will see you again someday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MINDI!!!!



You always see on people's blogs when its someones birthday they will usually write nice things about that person. Since I cant think of 27 nice things about her :) Here's a few that I can think of:

1- She always has a smile on her face.

2- There is never a dull moment when she is around.

3- True BLONDE (that may not be considered a nice thing about her)

4- A great step mom!

5- A good friend/sister!

Ok so I could only think of 5......"A" for effort right :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MINDI!!! (even though I know you wont read this since you suck at blogging!!!)

Reasons With Life

I was blog stalking today and came across this quote on someones blog. I LOVE IT!!!!

"I believe that everything happens for a reason.
People change so that you can learn to let go,
things go wrong so that you appreciate them when their right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."

**Tie Dye**

I know you have all done it before....I'm talking about blog stalking! Well on Friday I was of course BLOG STALKING.....I came across someones blog that had done some tie dying. I have never done this before (or atleast I don't remember ever doing it) and it sounded like alot of fun. So I texted my sister Kesha and asked if she wanted to join in on the fun.....Sunday afternoon Kesha came over as well as my brother Jason and his family. Thanks to Kesha for doing her research to find exactly HOW to tie dye shirts. It was alot of fun....here are the results:

TaLeNt WhOrEs

So I have come to the conclusion that my sister's Tiffini and Kesha are a bunch of talent whores! They somehow stole all the good crafty talent genes!!! If any of you have looked at Tiffini's website "Dream Seam" you will see what I am talking about! She can pretty much sew anything and everything. Now one of the reason's Kesha is a 'Talent Whore'....

A few weekends ago Kesha's husband gave her a nice camera for her early Christmas present...Christmas in September....she was all sorts of excited to try it out and ofcourse I was the guinea pig. She came over Saturday morning and we went around to the random areas of our back yard and took some pictures. After she worked her magic and edited them....this is how they turned out.






















See a talent whore!!!!! Love ya Kesha! You did an amazing job!!!
