Peaceful Memories of Kerry...

There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think about him, think about what happened, or think about how it changed us all.
There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t miss him, don’t pray for his family or wish things were different.

I am completely amazed that it’s been 4 years. That night is still so vivid in my memory; his smile is still so vivid in my memory.
I have relived that night over and over again in my head. Still, nothing makes sense and it hurts just as much hearing it the first time as it does thinking about it again.

The fact is we can’t change what happened that night, so we live; move on, with a void in our hearts. A void only Kerry could fill. We know that he will meet us again in heaven, smiling that Kerry smile that we all have etched in our memories.

We remember you this week because this week 4 years ago our lives changed forever, but we remember you every day because we love you, miss you and will never let you go.

We pray every day for Peaceful Memories of you, and smile because you helped make us who we are.

We wish we had one more day …

One more day
By Diamond Rio
Last night I had a crazy dream A wish was granted just for meIt could be for anything I didn’t ask for money Or a mansion in Malibu I simply wished, for one more day with you

One more day One more time One more sunset, maybe Id be satisfied But then againI know what it would do Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you.


First thing I’d do, is pray for time to crawl Then Id unplug the telephone And keep the TV offI’d hold you every second Say a million I love yous That’s what I’d do, with one more day with you.


One more day One more time One more sunset, maybe Id be satisfied But then again I know what it would do Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you


Leave me wishing still, for one more day Leave me wishing still, for one more day.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

8 Years Ago Today...

 8 Years ago today... I was in the Kent/Des Moines Park and Ride puking in the bushes because I was SO Nervous about my first day at KMS. I didn't know If I could hack it in the big city. I didn't know a thing about being a Receptionist, and I didn't even know what a Broker/Dealer was, but I swallowed the lump in my throat and decided to take it head on. I've learned SO MUCH - an Immeasurable amount of life and work lessons from my 8 years at KMS, and I could muse all day long about the Farm Fresh 22 year old you see to the left and how naive she was. KMS has given me a gift of balancing a work life and a home life and still being able to give my 110% when I'm at work without losing my balance. When I walked in the door this morning, my co-workers had created this celebration from me, and after they arrived, it got bigger with gifts, and notes, and cards, and decorations. They wanted to celebrate me, and my achievements here, though If they would have kn...
