"Ana Jones"

My nephew Travis stayed overnight at my house on April 20th. It was so much fun! He wrote me a letter, and it was so sweet. I need to take a picture of it and post it, because it is something that I want to keep forever! Apparently he is a little obsessed with Indiana Jones. I wish that I had gotten a picture of him with his hat on. It was too cute! He talked about the movies all night long, and he calls it Ana Jones. He is also an amazing artist. He is 8 years old, and he told me that he drew this picture from his memory. I love this kid. He is so funny, and has such a kind heart. I am grateful for him.


Happy 13th Birthday Haley!!!!!!

So, I had this great idea. My niece Haley turned 13 on April 21st, and I wanted to do something special for her. I talked to her mom, and asked her if I could throw Haley a little surprise slumber party. I invited Val's girls, and it was on. The girls hid in my room, and when Haley got there, I asked her to go into my bedroom and get something for me. The girls jumped out, and scared the heck out of her. She was so surprised, and I was so happy that I could do something fun for my wonderful niece. I am grateful for her and for all of the joy that she has brought into my life. She is beautiful, funny, sweet, and a little crazy, but I wouldn't have it any other way! Love you Haley!
