A lot has changed....

Well, I have been neglecting this for some time now. With the past months events I thought I would turn to this as an outlet! On April 27, 2011, Joel, Grady, and I joined our friend Bob for dinner. While we were laughing and cutting up, my brother in laws world was being shattered!! Joel is from Pleasant Grove...some of his family still lives there. That night when we got home Joel's Mom ran out on the porch and told us my sister-in -law had passed away. I stood there in disbelief! Not only had Greg lost his wife but his home was gone, too! The tornado that struck Pleasant Grove had left a void in this family! I have told many people since then..you see it on TV and think this could never happen to your family...and when it does your in shock! My BIL, nephews and niece are holding it together. It breaks my heart that these kids will now have to grow up without their mother! I know how tough it is. We have been going back to BHAM to help Greg....if there is a silver lining in such a terrible event..it that it has brought this once close family back together.

On a light note...no promises but I am going to try and write on blog a week!
