Closeness

Love doesn't hide. It stays and fights. It goes the distance, that's why love is so strong. So it can carry you all the way home.


So i have been looking at some of the pictures i have. Some of which Ashley (my good friend and sister-in-law) has given me. Plus i have been thinking about somethings and relationship that are going on lately. I am very greatful to have Cody in my life. I know he loves me with all his heart. The V-day card he gave me tells me that I complete him. We were at the mall the other day. Happen to go to Kays to see if my necklace came back in. We were kinda looking at some rings. Cody showed me some he likes and i pointed to some i like. We will be getting married one day. He is saving up for my ring. It is going to happen when we are ready not when others think we are ready. I know how i want my wedding to be like. Ashley is going to be our photographer since she is an amazing photographer. Cody and I know who we want to be in the wedding. Our wedding is going to be by invitation only. I know two guys who we are going to stand at the door to check to see that the people who do not have an invitation doesnt get in. That is only because we arent made of money and we are only going to invite the people we want to share our special day. The colors are going to be pink and black. But back to the title of the blog, Closeness. I say closeness because looking at the pictures and seeing how close Cody and I are. How close I am with my parents and sister. How close we are with my friend John and Kaylisha. How close Cody is with his brother Jon. How close Cody is getting with my family. How close we both are to our nephews Shawn and Landon. How close we both are with Ashley. Jon got really sick one day and had to go to the hospital. We are thankful that Ashley called to let us know what was going on. We have called or facebooked Ashley since then to see how Jon is doing. We are going to be with him for his birthday. He should have his family around him for a day that is special. It is so nice to see how Cody gets a smile on his face when he talks to Jon and they start talking nerdy. I mean nerdy because they talk about video games or computer games. My family is close to the both of us. My Uncle got Cody a car so he can take parts off it and make his car into a stick shift car. Cody had asked my dad to help with it. So one weekend soon (after the snow melts) my dad, my Uncle Tim and Cody will be working to change his car over. I just had to write a blog about closeness. I think family is important. We dont chose what family we are born into. But some times we get lucky to have been born into an amazing family. I was born into an amazing family. Here are some pictures I had found that helps show the closeness. Enjoy.


Cody and my cousin Nathan
Nathan gets so happy to see Cody. He even saw a picture
of Shawn and Landon and asked me if they were for him to play with
Maybe one day they will be able to meet each other.



Cody and John playing the xbox.
Those two are funny when they get together


My best friend Kaylisha and me.
I love her. She is a good friend
She would kick any bodies butt for me.


My sister and me.
I love her and she is also one of my best friends.


A bond better a mother and her daughters is special.
I love my mommy with all my heart.
The one day when Cody and I were spending time with my parents
Cody throw a snow ball at her, a couple days later she got him back.


When they are talking about working on cars, cars all together
They talk about different video games.


The bond we have with our nephews is something special. We try to at least get out to where
they live once a month. When i get my new job and Cody gets his new position
We might have weekends off and we can go see them more. And the closer we will all get


This is my favorite picture.
They are so cute.


One of my best friends and an amazing sister-in-law
I love her to death. She is funny and amazing
Love catching up with each other on the computer and on the phone.


So close then but even closer now.
I love these two guys.

What a BEAUTIFUL post, Lynda! The quote at the top is just perfect. You are right, we do not chose the family we are born into, but we find family along the way. Thank you both so much for being here for Jon and I when he had his health scare. He was so grateful for you guys.

Watching you guys with the boys and how close you are is amazing. Jon & Cody deserve to be as happy as they are and have a normal brother relationship. I can't wait for your "surprise" visit this weekend! We'll have to plan something extra special for your entrance!
