Missing Him

In 10 days, on April 25th, it will be one year since my grandfather passed away. I am sad tonight...I am sad because he wasn't here for my birthday. I missed his phone call telling me hapy birthday and that he loved me. I missed him being at the hospital the night that I gave birth to Addison. I miss not having a picture of him with his great-granddaughter. How proud he was of the boys and how proud he would have been of Addison also. He is still so missed and so very much loved still. He is a hole that can never be replaced and a presence that is missed deeply.

Easter 2010

Here are some pics of the boys and Addison the night before Easter. The boys and I decorated eggs while Addison hung out in her swing and looked on!

Bluebonnets

Before mom left we took the kids to go take some pics in the bluebonnets. It was the first time that Alex had ever held Addison and he did great! Needless to say she does not enjoy sitting in a field full of flowers and weeds. They were all troopers though and it is a challenge getting 3 kids to all look good in one pic, but I think they turned out pretty cute!
