It has been a hard few weeks!

I haven't wrote anything lately because it doesn't seem like I have had anything good to write about....with one exception, Father's Day!

As a late tribute to my Sweet hubby and my Father's I want them to know how much I love them all!!!

My sweet husband is THE BEST Dad! He always is full of energy when mine is long gone, he is always looking out for us and is very selfless! He give up so much for our family. He is also such a great husband and is always there to listen to me complain, cry or just plain vent! I love him!!!

MY DAD:

He is such another great example of selflessness. He would do anything for his kids or grand kids. He is a great Grandpa and love us more than life and he shows it in all he does...I love my sweet dad. Another thing I love about my Dad is than he still calls my "Pumpkin", I love it!!! Sometimes I still get homesick for my dad!

My Father-in-law....another man who gives up so much for his kids! I love him as if I were one of his own! He is also one of the BEST story tellers I have ever met! He is so funny and fun to be around! I am so glad he is closer so my kids can get to know him better!!

So that is the good news.

Some of the sad times we have faced in the last few weeks:

On the 16th of June Ben's Grandpa was killed in a tractor accident in Mississippi. We flew there as a family and were part of the funeral. He was a funny little old man and it was sad that it happened right before Father's Day. We enjoyed being together as a family. We had some fun times together and some very sad moments together.

On the 5th of July my brother moved to Alaska. This was really sad for me because my family is really close and have never been away from each other. I will really miss him!! One of the saddest things is that he had to leave his best friend...his dog Coal behind. That makes me sad! We will miss you Bro!!

Then to top it off on Monday Ben's grandma had a heart attack and ended up being sent to Pocatello by ambulance. This was so scary for everyone because she is such a huge part of our lives! We need her! It was too close of a call and has made us all feel so blessed! She is home and is resting, and we are so glad.

My hero in all of this has got to be Ben's mom! She has picked up and moved away from Pennsylvania, where she left friends that were like sisters, she has attended her Father-in-laws funeral and has a mother in the hospital. This all has happened in the last 3 weeks. She is so Strong and such an inspiration to all of us!!! We love her!!!

Now that I have sat here and cried while I have typed this whole thing I think I will go watch InkHeart. I love the song "The Climb" it really has so many good points and is fitting in our family right now!!!
