I’ve been working on a new theme all evening. I thought I’d do something with a summer theme. It was fun to make!

So the first week of school Devlin missed a day because he was sick. The second week of school Edwin missed a day of school because he was sick. And now here we are starting week 3 and Cat is home sick. Oy! I forgot what a pain in the butt going back to school could be. It never fails the first few weeks of school somebody gets sick. Cat is the last one in the house to get it though so we should be on the road to getting rid of this bug.
I’ve been working on moving photos off disc so I can get them resized and renamed. Once I get that done I’ll get them uploaded. I have the remaining photos from 2005 and the photos from 2006 up til the end of our summer trip. The rest are on discs that I no doubt put in a safe place but sometimes my safe places are too safe. They’re even safe from me. LOL

Just wanted to let everybody know that I’m putting some work into this website. For a long time it has been unbelievable difficult to look at this website because it was created out of the love of my family and that included Paul. Even though I have a website dedicated solely to him, the website still had a hole where he should be. But I’m ready to move on from that and start updating on you on those of us who are living. I have created this cute new school theme. We’ll be using this one during the school year or until I get bored of it and feel like creating a new one. 
In the next couple months I’m going to dig through CDs and pull out all the photos that I never uploaded or linked. It will take some time though because I have 2 years worth of photos to get added to this site and we’ve taken some pretty big trips in that time. I’m also working on adding some other cool new stuff. Some of which you may have already noticed such as the weather widget and the twitter widget.
So if you stop by and things seem a little wacky, just try back later because it means I’m at that very moment working on it.

Just wanted to let everybody know that I’m working on some behind the scenes administrative stuff. I will try to be better about updating about what’s going on with the family site since that’s what this is for. This site was started to keep friends and family on the other side of the country as well as here in Arizona. It’s so that you can keep up with what’s going on in our lives so I’m going to try and start getting back to that now. It’s time to return to normally functioning activities.
The kids first day of school is tomorrow so look for a post about that as well as first day of school pictures!

I’m so behind on adding some of my membership logos because I was having problems with my old laptop charging and keeping a charge. But I got the logos added for Rose Bon Bon, Sunflower Streams, Pixel Anything (which should have been added AGES ago), Maya Sigtags Club and Pixel Graffiti. Now that I’m on my newer laptop and have a ton of storage with my external drive I’m going to start the LONG process of resizing and renaming photos from the last year and a half and getting them uploaded to the gallery.

Today would of been our 2nd wedding anniversary. It still hurts so much to know that we won’t be growing old together. I miss him every day and often wonder if we would of settled back into our comfortable lives together by now. Would we have had the formal wedding we’d talked about having when he returned from Iraq by now? Would we be knee deep in travel brochures and saving every extra penny we had to take the kids to Disney World next year like we’d planned?
Two years ago today, I married my soulmate. Two years ago today, I was the happiest I’ve ever been in my life. How could I not be? I was marrying the love of my life and getting to share that day with my 3 beautiful children and my parents. I took a risk at being hurt again, or failing at another marriage. I married him knowing I could experience the biggest heartache of my life and have. I wouldn’t take it back, not for one second.
I’m going out to dinner tonight. I’m not sure with who yet, either one of the 860th wives, my sister-in-law or my best friend. I’m going to go out and celebrate my love for Paul and our love for each other. I ordered myself 3 dozen purple carnations from ProFlowers and then curiosity got the best of me and I wandered over to 100flowers which is where Paul always ordered from. I wanted to see what they had to offer and if next time I might order from there. While looking around I found the very arrangement that Paul ordered for me for my birthday before he was killed. I couldn’t help it. I ordered them because when I look at them they remind me of him and how special he made me feel that last year. I also ordered something to hug when I got sad today. I thought it was going to be a bear but when it showed up it was a lion. It was a pleasant surprise and I felt like he had a hand in it.
I uploaded Halloween photos and you can find them under Holidays. The highlight of the night was the truck which also had it’s own touch of Halloween and also sort of tied into the day of th dead. A day to celebrate the lives of those who have died. Halloween was Paul’s favorite holiday and we wanted him to be included and to know that we celebrated Halloween this year in memory of him know matter how difficult it may have been on us.

I figured since we are starting a whole new life following Paul’s death, we should make a new start on our website also. I will be gradually getting content added back that still applies and I will hopefully be making more updates. Over the next few weeks I hope to get more features added and get this site completed prior to my trip back East next month.
