Been awhile...

   So, I am currently on vacation with my family in Colorado.  And when I say family... I mean FAMILY!!!!  All of them!!!  All 17 of us.  The only one of us missing is KC. :(  Sure do miss my bubba.  But we are all here.  It is crazy fun.  All seven grandkids and all 6 girls!!!  We are going to South Dakota to 'rough it', well Geneva's definition of roughing it, which means.... We are not sure if the HUGE cabin we are going to has A/C or not. BAHAHAHA!!!!!!  We surprised mom today when she got into town.  She didn't know Cathrine and Aaron would be here from Alaska!!!  Tom, Cathrine's husband just got a new job and couldn't come, so he is still in Alaska.  It was great surprising mom though!!  She cried... Nothing new there.  When her and dad got into town we had Renee's kids answer the door with Aaron in the mix.  Took mom a few moments then she said 'Hey!!! Tristan's little friend looks a lot like Aaron.... Wait!! Is that Aaron??  IS CATHRINE HERE?!?!?!?!'  Cathrine then stepped out and we all had cameras and there were hugs and tears.  It was awesome!!!

    So tonight Uncle Mark and Aunt Alicia came and made dinner and we had a belated birthday party for Aaron.  He turned 3 back in May, but Cat wanted to wait to have his party til they got here.  So all the family could be apart of it.  We had cupcakes and presents.  So much fun!!!  Before dinner the kids played on the slip and slide I got for them.  TOO CUTE!!!  We have pictures... They will probably show up on Facebook here in the near future.  XD

   So I am on day 4 of not seeing Shawn... It is going easier than I thought... but is still really difficult.  I miss him soo much!!!  We got the disk of our engagement pictures just before I left.  I find myself looking at the pictures all the time.  I get distracted by my family easily, but every time some one talks about the wedding or wants to see the ring....  I think of him and I miss him like crazy.  This is my favorite picture from the pictures.

Well... Not much has come about in the way of wedding plans.  There is just too much going on... and I feel overwhelmed every time I think about it.  Mainly because  I am BROKE as a JOKE!!!!  I went from a 'baller on a budget' and slid down the totem pole to rock bottom.  It is sad....  I also found out tonight that my sister who almost never goes to work (because she would rather sleep through it and her boss loves her and won't fire her)  and never went to college makes more per hour than me... The responsible one who went to college and chose a career she loves makes squat compared to her.  FML!!!!  Well on that high note I will split.  I am dead tired!!!! and am gonna go to bed.  Night all.

Til next time.
