My Brother says goobye, headed for war in Iraq.

cliff is a great guy who has always
had a way of succeeding in making his family very proud of him. With a heavy heart and a brave face me, my mom, and my brother pose with a smile for one last picture before cliff flies out for 2 months of final trianning in Gulf Port, Mississippi. He will be missed very much, especially by his two boys Holden (5) & Camden (2) who absolutely adore their father. Lucky for them they have a great mom. Cliff's wife Heather is taking the boys to Texas for a few months so I will not see any of them for what seems like forever.It is nice to know that it will be closer from Texas as far as, driving distance, to get the boys to Mississippi to see Cliff again one last time for the next 12 months, at the final send off party in Gulf Port. I am relay proud of my bro-bro because his always been smart and athletic and he was all ways good at every thing he did especially if he enjoyed it.
thanks big brother..... we will see each other again real soon.

The Girls 1st slumber party.


"It was the best day of our lives", said both of our girls about their first sleep over. May 18Th 2007 they where both invited to a birthday party at their kindergarten friend Bethany's who was turning 6 on the big day. They jumped on the trampoline, had cake and ice cream and opened presents while they where surrounded by Dora the explorer balloons, wore pointy Dora party hats and squeaked out the sounds of annoying party favors.
After all the parents left the party is when the fun really started for the girls. I'm not sure but I did hear the girls say something about how they found out that helium makes you talk funny, and Lucie and Alexis both can home with permanent maker all over their faces! They had a great time and can not wait to go to their next slumber party.

In loving memory of grandpa Jordan From David jr.


David was born on February 13Th two days after his daddy's birthday and 2 months 10 days after his grandpa Jordan passed away suddenly from a heart attack. I was almost 9 months pregnant with David Jr. when my father died. Davids birth gave me a reason to be happy again after losing my father. I wish he would of had the chance to know his grandpa like his sister Lucie did. Dad, where ever you are we love you and we miss you.
