Good Times in Bad Times


Isn't she cute! That's my niece, McKenzie. Last week she turned 13. So, we went to Texas Roadhouse, had a little dinner, a few laughs and a little Happy Birthday sing-a-long. I can't believe how quickly she's grown and how beautiful she's become
~ inside and out.

Have I mentioned how much I love hanging-out with my family....

Speaking of, on Mother's day Trevor and I drove to Idaho to be with my family. WHAT A BLAST WE HAD! We went shopping, had a fabulous lunch, did our toes, giggled, joked and laughed.

For instance, my sweet, little niece, Jocelyn, will be here next week for a ",Aunt Carla Niece Jocelyn weekend". We plan to shop, cook, chat, play, pamper and laugh ... giggle ... laugh.

Life is difficult for many these days, Trevor and I are no exception. Even with the stress of day in-day out life, bills that do and don't get paid, and dreams that seem too far to touch, it's my family that keeps sane, keeps me laughing and remind me, in the most glorious way, that life ain't so bad.
