Really my last post for 2008... Maybe...


Yes I know I said my last entry was it for the year but oh well,just had to say something to just my sisters Lora(LaLa), Shannon(Bunny),and Erin(Ernie) how much fun I've had this past year with you guys. We have a blast no matter where we go. Our little adventure in crafting has been so fun, Im hoping that Shannon can come around more often this next year. I love each of you had admire you all for different reasons. I know we can drive each other crazy sometimes but I love how we get past it and love each other through it and still stay close. Lets promise to never let anything drive us apart because we are an awesome force. Lets keep our dreams of having our little shop, "A Little Bit of Everything" alive and work together on making it come true.(from My Sassy Sisters and Friends) Stay just the way you are I Love you All and I know we were close sisters in Heaven can you imagine Heavenly Father had his hands full with us and I know we were just as silly and fun he must of really felt love and sympathy for our parents lol.Thank you for excepting, and loving me with my crazyness for being paitence most of the time with my forgetfullness and my personal clock being off by about 30 min. or so,I think we are all very Sassy and we are blessed to have each other. And we so need to get together and just dance... Love you Kerry

2008 In a Nut Shell

Well here we are at the end of another year, I can't believe it. There has been happy times and sad, but we have made it through with the love and support of our amazing family. We have an amazing support system. I want to take this time to tell all of our family members and friends how much I love each and everyone of them and feel truly blessed to have them in my life. I pray that we will all stay close to our Heavenly Father and that we will all look for the good in each other, I pray that this next year will be an amazing fun adventure for us all. I pray we will be kind and loving to all,that we will strive to be our best, that we will love and give all that we can and then some more. I ask for forgivness from anyone I may have wronged or hurt and I forgive those who have wronged or hurt me and I forgive myself for the mistakes I have made. I love my life. I look forward to seeing what is in store this new year I hope and pray it will include good times with all of the people I love. I love you all...
Here are some of the things that happened in 2008. Our oldest son turned 20 which does not seem possible. Jamie our daughter inlaw also clebrated her 20th birthday as well. They also celebrated their 1 year anniversary. Zack turned 17 in July and Jordan 16 in August,our baby wow. I turned 39 and my sweetheart Jason turned 40... We had some new additions added to our family,Taterbug,Franklin, and Hellboy (after the movie Zack named him)three little persian kitties. We love them so much. We had a great get away this last summer, we were able to stay in a cabin some friends of our own up in Greer, absolutely the most amazing and beautiful cabin. We still talk about it all the time. Jason and I celebrated our 22 years together anniversary and our 21 years married anniversary. My sisters and I started a little business venture called My Sassy Sisters we make craft items, we have so much fun getting together had making things. Josh is now working in the film industry something he's wanted to do for sometime. I think Zack and Jordan are hoping he will have some influence down the road so they can get in on the action. Grandma Rowena took a helicopter ride for her Birthday, she really enjoyed it. We had a really nice Holidays this past year. We celebrated Easter at Grandma Ruths house she wasn't feeling her best but it was good to all get together it will probably be our last Easter with Grandma. We had some visits from Natalie which is always good we all miss her and Harold. We spent Thanksgiving with Jasons Family in Wickenburg and had a very nice time, we always do. The beginning of December did not start out well, December 6th is when we recieved news of our Aunt Sandy's passing, what a horrible unexpected tragedy. And Grandma Ruth had to have surgery and have her left leg amputated, we hope and pray she dosent have to be in pain. Even though December didn't start out on a possitive note we did have a nice Christmas and a fun Christmas Eve at Shannons House.Well I think that sort of wraps things up I'm sure I've forgotten thing but thats normal for me. I hope we all learned something valuable in this passing year of 2008 and use it to improve and strenghten our lives and testimonies and help us live a stronger and happier life. I want to dedicate this last blog for the year 2008 to my Sweet Sandra Sue I miss You and know I will see you again someday I love you Sandy... Kerry

Sweet Sandra Sue


This past Saturday we had a memorial for my Sweet Aunt Sandy. She pasted away a week ago from Saturday. I've been wanting to write something about Sweet Sandy but it's been to difficult to do. I have so many great memories of Sandy and I will cherish them forever. She was such a loving, kind and generous person. One thing I always think of when I think of Sandy is animals, she loved them so much she always had them around, if she didn't have one as a pet she would take care of any stray animals that came around. At any holiday event she always had something for everyone, she loved to do for everyone. Sandy's friend Candy came down for the memorial it was so good to she her, she so reminds me of Sandy I loved talking to her she is alot like Sandy just such a kind person. I think I visited with her the most it just made me feel closer to Sandy she even smelled just like her I hugged her and I just didn't want to let go. We exchanged emails and I really want to keep in touch. I know Sweet Sandy is with our Father in Heaven and is with our family that has passed on I truly know that Sandy knew we loved her and that we will be together again someday. Sweet Sandra Sue watch over me and know that I love you and miss you, I will live by your example with a loving and caring heart. I LOVE YOU Kerry

Here Goes...

This blog is for my sweet Husband and our 4 awesome kids. Joshua, Zachary, Jordan, and our daughter- in-law Jamie. I'm starting this so I can have a place to document events in our lives. I've never been good at keeping a journal. I'm hoping I'll keep this up. I wanted a place where I can go and write down feelings, stories I remember from my childhood, your childhoods and new stories now and still to come. (Names may be changed to protect those who the actual events happened too) You all can also go on and write things you want to share and not forget. Just remember guys mom doesn't always have the best memory it sort of comes and goes. So be prepared for my crazyness to come fullforce, I may be sharing a story and it will make me think of another and you know me I may wonder off on another but be patient it usually will come back around. I hope this is fun for you guys to read and add to. I love you all so very much and know how blessed I am to be your wife, and mother(in-law) Love Mom , Kerry
