My Niece, Jersey Jean....

is 7 today! I can't believe it! She is such a beautiful little girl. I can't wait to see her in May! Here's a few pictures of the last time I saw my beautiful niece a year ago. And Jersey, if you read this, I have a birthday present to send you! Love you, Jers!

I love you, Dallin!

I just wanted to post a little blog and let my brother Dallin know how much I love him and am thinking about him on his birthday. I love you Dallin. I wish I was there to give you a big hug. I miss you. I wish that we talked more. I know I live far away but that doesn't mean I don't care about you and your cute family. I hope you know how much you mean to me. I feel like we have always been a bit closer even though we don't talk as much; like we think and feel the same. I know I may not have always been the best sister to you and just so you know it was all because of me. I'm sorry. I love you so much, Dallin! I know I have distanced myself from you and the family in the past and it hurts me now to think it may have hurt our relationship, but I am still your sister and you can still call and talk to me anytime for advice or a listening ear. (Sorry that my post will show up as posted on Oct. 8th and your birthday was yesterday the 7th. It took me a while to type because I had to stop crying. I guess I'm just missing all my family. ) WOW! I really know how to write a depressing blog! I love you Dallin. Don't ever forget that. You are a wonderful brother and I wouldn't trade you for anyone else. Happy Birthday

They are giving one of these away every week!

No Joke! This is a sweet ride!

I love my mom!

I just wanted to say Happy Birthday to my mother. I'm so sad that she is only 9 hours away but it still feels like longer because I don't get to see her enough. I love you so much Mom! I'm going to miss you and Dad when you are gone to the Marshall Islands. You are such a great person and friend. I'm so happy that you are my mother. You always try to be there for me as much as you can. I know I'm not the best at letting you or anyone in but you try still and I appreciate it. I'll try to do better. Thank you for being so patient with me. I love you and I hope you had a very happy birthday!

-Love-
Your Daughter,
Lauren

4/20 does not mean what you think....

It means it's my beautiful niece Jersey is having her birthday! Her 6th birthday today, to be precise. I am happy to have this little girl as part of my family. She is such a happy girl and good sister. I haven't seen her in a whole year and I can't wait to see her on Saturday! I love you Jersey! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

New Phone = New Number!

Hey everyone! If you have my old 817 phone number I have a new phone and a new number. Email me back if you want my new number.

K Bye!

I lost my phone!

It finally happened. I think I lost my phone for good. I haven't been able to find it since I had it yesterday morning. Anyway, I had quite a few phone numbers and addresses in that phone. If you know that I had your number(s) please email me back.

Thanks!
