Sad

My Uncle Jay (aka Uncle JJ) has cancer and like three weeks ago the cancer had taken the turn for the worst and he was taking to the hospital. As soon as they had him well enough they took him to the Hersey Hospital. I had some bad news today. My Uncle JJ had taken a turn even worst. He doesn't have long at all. I could be any minute, hour or day. This really sucks. I hate cancer. I dont understand why god would creat such a horrible thing. Maybe God has a reason for what is going on, i just dont see it right now. I dont want to see my Uncle in pain but I also dont want to see him leave earth. What i can remember about him is how he looked before the cancer. How he was so kind to my sister and me. How the three of us would do things at church to make each other laugh. How he was teaching me how to drive stick. How he had the same kind of taste in music that i did. I can still hope and pray that something happens, like all the pain goes away and he gets better. I dont know if it will happen but i can still hope for it. At least I know he knows that i love him and I am glad i got to see him the other week. I gave him a hug and a kiss and told him I love him. I hate cancer and wish they would find a way to make sure people will never get it or if they do they get rid of it. Here are two pictures that I have of my Uncle JJ that make me smile.

Family

In truth a family is what you make it. It is made strong, not by number of heads counted at the dinner table, but by the rituals you help family members create, by the memories you share, by the commitment of time, caring, and love you show to one another, and by the hopes for the future you have as individuals and as a unit. - Marge Kennedy

I have posted that quote on my facebook. I love this quote. After a weekend i had last weekend and a week this week. I wanted to share this quote. Cody and I have been getting pretty close to Jon and Ashley and the boys. Cody loves his nephews a lot. This weekend we went to see Jon and Ashley and the boys again. Today at breakfast Cody was letting Shawn do something that he would normally be allowed to do. He says to me that Uncles are aloud to spoil their nephews. It was so cute when he said this. I know the boys love having their Uncle around when we can get out there. Family to me is the people who want to be part of the lives of family ones. I am so close to my family. My family would never move to far away from each other. We all pretty much live within 15 from each other. We have are get togethers. My family loves Cody and they treat them as family. Today was my Aunt Melissa's 30th birthday. Cody and I went out to eat with my parents, sister, grandmother, Aunt Melissa and Uncle Tim and Josh, Aunt Jen and Nathan and Gene. Nathan is only 3 years old and before the food got to the table Nathan goes "I want to go sit on Cody's lap" so he had to walk to the other end of the table and sat with Cody. Cody has been getting really close to his brother Jon again. Cody likes how his brother treats him as an adult. Ashley and I have been getting really close since October. We both wish when Cody and I first started dating that we were as close as we are now. We would be part of the boys lives from the beginning then. But we are making up for every lost min. Ashley and Jon have taken Shawn to get fish for his fish tank but they left room for two more. So next time we go out we are going to take Shawn for two more fish to put in the tank. We also will be going to Knobles with them since they werent able to go on this past Friday. I know this will be awhile from now but when Cody and I get married: Cody will have Pap, Jon and Ben on his side (his grooms) and I will be having my sister, Ashley and my best friend Kaylisha. But anyways since last weekend when cody and Jon got to have their brothers night out and have been getting really close again. Well i wanted to add some pictures of Jon and Cody when they were younger that Ashley had shared with me. Hope you enjoy the old school pictures.

Their funny faces.

Such a nice picture of two brothers.

This is a nice picture of them.
They are both smiling.

The love of my life.
My best friend
My soul mate
My Mr. Right
I love him more then the moon and the sun.
So glad we are together and he stayed here with me

What a great weekend

This past weekend was Shawn and Landon birthday party. Cody and traveled two hours have our first birthday party with them. This was Shawn's third birthday party and Landon's first. We haven't been to Shawn's other birthday party because of problems between Cody's parents and with Ashley and Jon (Cody's sister-in-law and brother). So now that Jon and Cody are becoming closer and Ashley and I have been really close, we will never miss another party of the boys again. We haven't see Jon, Ashley, Shawn, and Landon since April so this was a visit that was badly needed. We adore those boys so much and make good time of our visit with them all. We got to Ashley and Jon's home on Saturday that way when Shawn woke up in the morning he would have a surprise of his Uncle Cody there. And let me tell you that that boy was so happy to see his Uncle Cody. Sunday Ashley, her friend Liz and I went to get the party ready. WE had to pick up the balloons and ice cream. I did my best all day to help out as much as i could. Didn't get to talk much to Cody's parents because i was busy helping. We had such a good time at the birthday party. Sunday night Ashley and I stayed in so that way Cody and Jon could have a brothers night out. They had pizza and went to see a movie. It was so good that they got to do this. Cody really enjoyed his time with his brother. They are becoming so close again. Then on Monday, Cody's grandfather went to have surgery on his hip. He had a hip replacement. So we went to see him at the hospital after his surgery. Everything went fine for his surgery. Cody's parents and I are not on good terms right now. We got in a fight. Cody stuck up for me which was really nice. On another note i wanted to say to Jon and Ashley, thank you so much for letting us stay out your place and letting me help out at the party. We enjoyed our time with you all. Well here are some pictures of our time with Jon and Ashley and the boys. The calm before the storm. LOL

You will see why in the next picture.

Fun Weekend

Saturday night Cody and I decided we would have a little date night. I love our date nights. We don't have many of them because of trying to pay off bills. Cody had gotten free tickets to maple groove. We have never been there. Its a race track and not far from where we live. So we went there. It was a lot of fun to see and watch. The cars were loud but that didn't bother us. On June 20th my parents are taking us up again to watch another race which is suppose to be better. We cant wait for that. It will be nice. So then on Sunday, I had to go to work. Which it was pretty busy but not for me. I didn't get some people and some good sales (i really liked it when a couple bought a $1,885 ring but with tax and the care plan it came out to be $2,020.) After I got done with work Cody and I went to my Aunt Melissa's house where she was having a picnic. We got there and some people had already left. We stayed for a while. I started to rain and thunder. We went inside for a little but went back out. It got all sticky after the rain. My cousin Nathan decided he was going to jump in the puddles. But didn't help when Melissa filled them more because the rain it didn't do a good job. So he got all muddy. Then he decided he was going to play with bubbles. It was fun and funny to watch him. So that was are weekend which was fun. Today Cody and I both have off from work so it would be a good time to clean. Since his parents will be in PA on Saturday. They should be coming to our apartment Tuesday or Wednesday. If all goes to plan. Saturday is my mommy's birthday. So we are going to be spending time with her after Cody and I get done with work. Then maybe we might be going out to Ashley's on Saturday night (it all depends on how late we are at my parents). If we don't go out on Saturday night, we are going out really early on Sunday. That way we can help Jon and Ashley out with the boys birthday party. Here are some pictures of the weekend.

My Uncle Tim helping Nathan out.
Nathan was so thankful for our Uncle to help him out.

Nathan jumping in the puddles. He got all muddy.

Look at his leg. You can kinda see the mud.

The cars had to burn some rubber before they raced.
So that was the smoke from the tires.

One of the race cars. It was going pretty fast.

What is a date night without pictures of us.
I love this guy. He is my other half.

The sign that says where we are.

There we are again before we went into watch the race
i love when he spikes his hair.
He did it just for me before i got home from work

Sadness and Happiness at the same time

I don't know why there has to be happiness with sadness. Wednesday night, i volunteered to babysit my cousin Cecilia. She is four years old and she got to spend the night. Which let me tell ya that was fun. I could not get her to go to sleep. She finally went to sleep. Cody and I stayed up to watch a movie then we went to be. At 3:30 a.m. she wakes me up because she doesn't feel good. I asked her if she was going to throw up and she said yes. So i take her to the bathroom and open the toilet seat. She said no she wasn't to throw up in the sink. So instead of doing both, she got a bowl and she went back to sleep. Then at 6 something in the morning she wakes me up to tell me she doesn't need the bowl anymore. Then goes back to sleep then wakes back up at 7:45 a.m. I get up and get her dresses and gave her breakfast. Then my mom came and took her to school (daycare). So now i guess you wonder were the sadness comes from. When i pick my cousin up at my parents, my mom had told me some bad news. My Uncle JJ has been fighting cancer for a little while now. Wednesday night he had to be rushed to the hospital. He isn't doing so good. Thursday if they could get me okay enough they were going to move him to Hersey Hospital. The Hersey Hospital is better for cancer then the ones around here. He has stage 4 cancer. I hope he pulls through. He is a fighter so i know he will.

On a different note here are some pictures from last night before Cody and i went to bed and some pictures when Cecilia spent the night. Skyra and Gizmo. Aren't they getting bigger.
My babies are growing up so fast. lol

Me and Cody. He just got his hair cut and shaved today.
I colored my hair on Tuesday night. It is lighter.

There we are wearing our glasses (something you don't see me doing much).
We going to go to sleep but weren't tired. So we decided to take a picture.
Then i started reading my book and he was reading a comic book.

Me and Cecilia

There Cecilia is. I let her eat her breakfast out of my cow bowl.
I put the headband in her hair for school.

On Sunday was one of my friend's son's first birthday. Her name is Latara and her little boys name is Jaidian. He is so cute. She used to work at Sam's Club with me. She quite and then went to Wal-Mart. I still with her hubby, Hernan. They are good people. Well like i said they had a party for Jaidian on Sunday. Cody and I went and picked up my cousin Cecilia to go to the party since Latara said it was a kids birthday party she wanted kids to be there. We had fun. It was a little cold and windy but it was still a lot of fun. Cecilia had lots of fun too. Here are some pictures from the party. Me and my hubby. he is my everything i love him to death.

Here is the birthday boy, Jaidian

Me and Cody again. I really really love him he is my Mr. Right

So we had lots of fun. Now to come up in the next couple of days and weeks. In two days is Ashley's birthday. So i cant wait to give her a birthday kiss. LOL. Just an inside joke with her and me. She is the koolest person i know. I am glad we have gotten so close in just 7 months. I feel like we have been great friends for years. Then in 12 days is my moms birthday. I love my mommy so much. She is the greatest and is my hero. I would never move to far away from her. Then in 13 days will be Shawn and Landon (Ashleys and Jons boys, cody's nephews). It will be Landons first birthday and Shawn's third. I cant wait to see them all. We havent seem then in a while. Also Cody's mom and dad are coming up to visit so that would be nice to see them. Then on June 1st Miranda, Cody's cousin graduates from High School so that will be exciting. Then either June 2 or June 3rd Cody's parents are coming to see us at our apartment which would be nice because they haven't been here since cody's 21st birthday. So its been a time coming. The cats are getting big and always getting into trouble. Well off to read the book Ecape.
