Good Bye Great Grandma Lita

I am sad to say that Great Grandma Lita passed away today due to a battle with Cancer, to her bladder, which spread to her liver. Although Lita had lived along life residing in New York City her entire life we are still sad to see her go. Full of love and laughter she had nothing but love in her heart. I will never forget the first time that Faith and I met her she grabbed Faith and turned the A-track and the record player on and just started dancing away with Faith. That made her day just to be able to hold Faith's hand and dance with her. Great Grandma gave Faith a stuffed animal that was a dog last time we saw her that Faith has always held dear to her and always will. She was the most amazing person in the world. It's so hard to see her in so much pain after seeing her so happy at one time. Al will certainly miss her allot he was very close with his Great Grandma, he was just like her son. Lita took Al under her wing all the time! I am so glad that she got to see Faith before she passed away because that was her last wish! I am so glad that we made that come true! Great Grandma Lita, we love you and will see you in Heaven...

Nothing better than New York City

Our sudden trip to New York City was certainly unexpected, especially a week before Christmas. Unfortunately, it was not for fun. Faith's Great Grandma, Lita was put in the hospital for Cancer of the bladder last month they ended up taking her bladder out. They thought they got all of the cancer until she was admitted to the hospital again and they told us that her Cancer had spread so bad into her Liver that they could not even do Kemo because it was too bad. The doctor's gave Lita two weeks to live. All she wanted before she passed away was to see Faith one more time! Without hesitation Faith and I flew down to New York City to see Great Grandma. We spent the entire time just sitting by Great Grandma's bedside. When we walked in to see Lita she smiled and talked for the first in two day's when she saw Faith. She was so happy to see her. Poor Lita! While we were there we did have some fun! We went ice skating at Rockefeller center, we took Faith to the American Doll store and let her pick out a doll! We visited our favorite Uncle and Aunt, Uncle Bill and Mary. Faith's got to see family that she hasn't seen in a long time. She had a blast with her cousin Jayden. He is so handsome! It was really neat to see Faith be with family. New York is setch a breath taking place regardless of the reason's that you are going. I truly can say that I love New York!

Cinderella Goes to the NutCracker

We had a fun get together with the Cinderella Royalty. Caitlin,Savannah and Tiare! We went to the Nutcracker where Tiare played the lead role of Clara! What an amazing accomplishment that is. After, we went and celebrated Tiare's Birthday. Faith has setch a wonderful time with her Cinderella Sister's. They mean so much to her and she just has a blast no matter what she is doing with them it's always memorable!

December....

December was a very busy month for us and I haven't had anytime to even think. With two very demanding kids and the holiday's. Along with work being so busy and trying to keep up with home life was sure a struggle this month. I haven't even time to do any post's on my blog of Christmas, so sorry these are so late! My friend Tawnia had to change my blog background to Christmas, LOL. Thanks Tawnia! Getting into the holiday spirit was really tough this year starting it off with the dog chewing on all of our Christmas yard decorations didn't help either. We got the house decorating done late this year but we finally got it done, until the snow covered it all up! Christmas was really quiet around our house, it was just me and Faith the majority of the day. Christmas night we made cookies for Santa and the kids made there Christmas list's for Santa. Christmas morning the kid's were so excited, they woke up at 5AM (boy was I tired) but it was allot of fun because Faith woke up and yelled "It's Christmas" and saying Merry Christmas. She was so excited she went to see if Santa came and then had to go get her brother! She is so thoughtful. The happiness that the kid's have on Christmas really makes me so happy! Christmas day our cable went out because it was snowing sooo BAD, so Faith and I watched Christmas movies all day! I love spending time with the two joy's of my life!

Rudolph the Red nosed Reindeer

Faith and I had so much we went over and saw the Reindeer. She was so confused at why the Reindeer wasnt with Santa's sleigh. It was really neat! The Grinch was there too. Faith also went and sat on Santa's lap! It's the funniest thing she use to be so afraid of Santa. Faith telling Santa what she wants for Christmas and telling the Grinch not to take her toy's!

Happy Birthday Braxtin

Boy how time goes by fast! Braxtin was born on December 9Th, 1997 (my Sagittarius) he was 8lbs 15oz, 21 1/2 inches long and born at 7:28 AM. I know what your thinking, what a big baby! (lol) yes he was.. What an amazing son I have, he has really became a little man. Braxtin is a "daddy's boy" so he is not around much. But I am very involved in Braxtin's life. He loves to ride his bike and race BMX. As of today he is the 3rd place title hold for the state of Utah. I sure love him very much. Braxtin is the one that made me a Mom! I wouldn't have changed it for the world. For his Birthday we had so much fun. Braxtin doest like to have a big party he really would rather spend his time with a few good friends rather than a group of friends he really doesn't care about. We went and had a custom skate board made and then went and had ice cream at Leatherby's. The ice cream was so good and the girls at Leatherby's sang "Happy Birthday" to him. He had a great day and we love him so much! So here was to your 11Th Birthday Braxtin. Mom loves you! < <
