My Thnaksgiving

I had a very nice Thanksgiving Day. I got to enjoy it with my family, which is always so special. Ate a lot of great food. Got way to full.

I had been thinking of Kathryn a lot this month, especially Thanksgiving week. It has been 9 months since her death. I still cannot believe that. I don't know if I will ever some to terms with her death. I hope to and I am trying, but it seems to never get better. Her mom and dad went up to the cabin that they own in the desert to scatter her ashes. She would like that. She loved the desert so much. As i loved her so very much.

I am thankful to have known Kathryn. She was a blessed friend to have.

Disneyland

We went to Disneyland and had such a great time. It was nice to go as a family. Leah loved all the rides she went on. She even laughed on most of them. I am so glad she did not get scared. I can't wait to go again. We want to go when they have all their Christmas decorations up. 

She loves Minnie Mouse. She ran up to her and gave her a big hug and kiss. 








Halloween



Leah had such a fun Halloween. This was her first one actually Trick-Or-Treating. Last year shew as too small.

She actually walked around the whole block and went to all the houses with the lights on. So at least 10 houses. Some of the houses she would say her "trick treat" others she would just put her basket down and let the people put in the candy. It was just so very cute!

Then when we came home, she did not want to go in, so we all sat outside and she was giving the candy to everyone that came up. They all thought that was so cute.

I truly did not think she would do as well as she did. 


Friends, what is that?

We had our friends come down from Las Vegas this past weekend. I need to complain a little.

The wife was going to her high school reunion, that is why they came. They stayed with their friend Manny, which is Ruben's friend too. They have three girls, one of which is Ruben's Goddaughter. Well, we saw them all of 5 minutes. They had already made plans to go elsewhere, while Lisa was at the reunion. Normally I would probably not be upset.

But, these are the same people, that we travel to Vegas every year in November for the girls birthday's. Even when I was 6 months pregnant we drove there. We went to Vegas to see Lisa and take care of the girls while she was going through her Chemo for breast cancer. I called every day to every other day to see how she was doing, if she needed anything. The other people they saw while down here are also the other girls godfathers. The ones who have not gone to any birthday parties, never even remember their birthday's to even send cards or call to say Happy Birthday. I was told never even called to see how Lisa was. They have only seen Leah 2 other times one last year and then right before she turned 1. Al was supposed to be her Godfather, but I told Ruben he better find someone else. I won't have someone be the Godfather of my child who cannot even take time out, more than 5 minutes to see her while they were here the whole weekend.

Makes me wonder who or true friends are? Not sure we have any. When they need anything we have to be there. Ruebn has known Al since they were in Elementery School together. I think it just sucks. Ruben was and still is very hurt. They did not even call to say goodbye. When we go to Vegas we do nothing but hang out with them. So no more!
