Picklelicious....

My Mom, Dawn and I spent the day on Good Friday at Scrappy Chic with Mr Pickle, himself! We had so much fun... Lance was great and an AWESOME teacher...
Hailey was great also... She was such a big help.... It was so much fun getting to know her. For those of you that get the Paper and Glue e-mail, you know that name...

I've always been a fan of Rusty Pickle... I love their paper! The projects we did were great. We learned how to put a pop up in our book. Very cool stuff!

Marty went to Florida with some friends last Thursday. He thought about staying home to be with me and my family on Easter. But I told him that I would be fine... If he only knew...

Easter was very rough for all of us. It was My Dad's big holiday, the one that he enjoyed the most. Even over Christmas.
The hardest time of day for me was first thing in the morning and then at dinner time before prayer. It was so hard to look around the table and not see him....

My Brother ( Ant) said the prayer and that was very emotional. He did such a nice prayer, my dad would of been very proud of him.

The tears and the emptiness is still there, although I am getting stronger everyday. I miss him like crazy and I feel so sad for my mom.
It's like she doesn't know how to live life without him... Not in a OMG! she's going to die way. But in a little lost puppy dog way.

Sunday was my first day back on regular food... It's been weird but I'm doing it a few bites at a time.


I guess that's about it for now...
