We are getting through it though.....We just want you to know that. Even though smiles creep on our faces, laughter escapes our lips, and our lives we keep living........we think about KZ all through the day. Everyday. And to be quite honest.....I hope that never changes. I am so so so very greatful for the fact that we will see him again. I keep thinking about that glorious day.....how happy we will be......how we will just be able to pick up where we left off. Very exciting.
So until then.....we are going to laugh, smile, play.......we are going to live. For him.
We love that sweet little boy more than the word love could ever begin to describe.
The day after our babies birthday.......we through a Halloween party.
So if you don't know this about me by now, I'm gonna let ya know........ I absolutely, positively LOVE Halloween. Don't ask me why because I have no answer except because I do. I just love it!
So Kristina, Kass, and I had been preparing for this party for a couple weeks and I was so excited! We had it at Kassidy and Jake's house and it turned out awesome. Pretty much everyone dressed up, we played games, had awesome food, and I am already ready for next Halloween to throw another one!!
The frightening food
Grilled cheese and blood soup
Cupcakes and dirty Q-tips (marshmallows dipped in butterscotch chips)
Day old bath water (ice cream sherbet, 7up, frozen lemonade,
limeade,&pink lemonade)
Used bandaids (graham crackers, frosting, with red edible paint)
Deviled eyes
Witches brew (apple cider)
Graveyard cups and candy corn cups (pudding and cheesecake cups)
Fear Factor game.....scary
Kristina the clown! haha
Couples costume contest winners! Pebbles and bam bam
he only had the wig on for this picture....his blonde hair was perfect!
I didn't have a picture of the two of us together but Josh was the
tooth fairy.....yes that is hair on his chest.....fake of course.....and also yes
he is wearing tights! haha and I was the dentist.
Treat your teeth carefully, you don't want the dentist to have to
remove one....I don't think you would
want this guy in your room in the middle of the night to come and get it! lol
I just love him. He does it for me.
So cute Jami and Cody were the criminals
and Greyson was the Cop!
Wish I had a better picture...
cleaning up after the mummy contest
Kassidy and Jake were Snow White and the Huntsman.
Such a cute little Snow White!
Pin the wart on the witch
We had a great time!
And now we are back in Montana. Before we left I got the chance to catch up with an old friend.
Carissa, I love you so much! I love how we can go months without talking and then when we get together it's like we have never left each other's side. I love how I can tell you anything.....anything at all, I can open my heart to you and know that you will listen to me no matter how stupid I sound. Thank you for that! Along with Brittnee and Katie......I miss you guys!
And I can't forget about my dear Vanessa! She has written me a text message nearly everyday with the simple words...."I love you" and I don't think she knows how much that means to me......It's funny because it seems like everytime I recieve that text, it's when I really need it. Thanks Ness! I love you!
I still feel so very grateful for all of you that have been keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers. I am so thankful for each of you. Your prayers have definitely helped us. Thank you.
The first day of November.....wow, I can't believe this year is almost over.
For the start of November......I am thankful for the amazing privilege I had to raise an angel for 11 months. I just cannot think of anything I am more thankful for than that right there. Wow.......an angel, in my home, in my life, in our lives......for 11 months. It just doesn't get better than that!
May we all count our blessings.....
"Tomorrow is NEVER promised."
That quote means more to me now than it has ever before.
