May 2010-Update!

To be completely honest...I forgot all about our blog. I was thinking of a way to find a couple more photos of Stella, but I have all the ones from the blogs. Wow. It's insane that I can still hear her voice. I know everyone misses the crap outta her and tonight I am especially as I look through pictures of her. Life is so much different without her, but we all know she is up in heaven smiling at us and laughing at the jokes and stories she would hear if she was here! I miss you so much & I can't wait to hear you pick on me again for my southern drawl and call me Jamie Lynn again...I miss it the most! :)

Okay...Now that I am in tears I might as well get on with the rest aye..?

So, today but technically yesterday Sasha gave birth to once again 6 beautiful puppies 4 boys/2 girls-All healthy and she gave birth with little to no help at all. Also, some things that might come as a shock...

1) We have new wood floors in the living room and soon to come in mom and dads room and bathroom! :) Very stoked about that!

2) Our house no longer looks like we don't live in it, one of moms very good friends Shari came over and helped decorate and spoof the house up a bit- I was in denial when I walked thru the front door, literally had to walk out and back in again to know that I was not actually hallucinating!

3) After almost 3 months of working on the 2010 Family Reunion Video, I am almost done! The video is ALMOST (lacking 2-3 min) 1 HOUR long. Now take in mind that this will be shown at the reunion and I will be selling them. I just want everyone to know now how thankful I am that I got to do this. I am ready to be out of college and doing this professionally!

Well my rant has lasted longer than everyone wanted to read I am sure. We are all doing good add a little-minor stress occasionally and call us normal I suppose. All ready for vacationing & a little break throughout the summer.

We Love You All. God Bless.

THE DANCERS!

I Have to say that this year and Christmas was a good one! God Truly BLESSED our family with love and life. Even though we had our ups and downs we made it through the year! We have yet to get our Christmas card out, even though I started it back in September/October :) ! I thought I put the letter on the blog but obviously not! Sorry about that. We hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas and Santa brought lots of things, and had a good time bringing in the New Year with the people you love most!

SUPRISE!!!!!!!!! Sasha gave birth to six yorkies yesterday...one of them died today and one has a cleft lip :( Very Sad. The one with the cleft lip I named her lucky...but she doesn't seem like she is going to be lucky much longer unless she starts to gain a little more weight. I have been tube feeding her a little bit about every 30 min to an hour and praying. There are 3 boys and 2 girls! I took a few pictures and I will share them with you and keep you updated on Lucky....God Bless! The Dancers

If You Just Smile...

Smile, though your heart is aching. Smile, even though it's breaking. When there are clouds in the sky you'll get by...If you smile with your fear and sorrow. Smile and maybe tomorrow. You'll find that life is still worthwhile if you just...Light up your face with gladness hide every trace of sadness although a tear may be ever so near. That's the time you must keep on trying... Smile, what's the use of crying? You'll find that life is still worthwhile If you just...Smile, though your heart is aching Smile, even though it's breaking. When there are clouds in the sky. You'll get by...If you smile through your fear and sorrow. Smile and maybe tomorrow you'll find that life is still worthwhile if you just smile...That's the time you must keep on trying. Smile, what's the use of crying. You'll find that life is still worthwhile If you just SMILE...

It's a gloomy August 10, 2009...Last year it was too. It doesn't even seem like a year has gone by since that day. I look back and the one thing I still can see perfectly is her smile. Smiling and Singing were two things I Miss so much about her. I also miss how she could make my mom's day by just calling and talking to her for 2 hours! I Miss Everything about her!

Aunt Stella,

You are one of the strongest people I have ever met in my entire life. I know that you aren't here on earth with us but, I know the day of my accident you were with me. I find myself disbelieving myself sometimes...but I know you were there with me, keeping me alive and keeping me strong. I am so grateful I had you in my life and your family is in my life still...You were a blessing to each and everyone of us in a different way. Not a day...A DAY goes by that I don't think about you. Thank You for everything. I Will See You Again...One Sweet Day! Love Always, Jamie Lynn
