lots of thoughts lately...

So I have been doing a lot of thinking lately.

Why in my life I have always had to be the bigger person and apologize first.
Why I am always finding myself in situations that I put myself out there to make it better and it comes back to bite me.
To be honest I am really tired of doing the "right" thing. It may be the right thing to do but my heart really wasn't into it. I know it sounds bad right?

Besides all that, 6 months is tomorrow...which is just a weird feeling... NO regrets what so ever...just a weird feeling.

Friends...well...they come and go...and I can't do anything about it.

Life and work...well that is just a crazy stressful thing right now.

Anyway, just getting it all out there I guess...
no worries.

Another Volleyball Weekend. =)

Well, I am behind in my blogging but here are some pics and a couple videos from last weekend. We went to Crater to play some volleyball. We spent quite a bit of time at the truck stop waiting for Jeff to come back so we could go back to the game. We ran into someone from church that needed some help so that's what we did. Long story short, we waited at the truck stop played games, laughed, made people look at us funny...all good things. =)


This is me and nana playing a clapping game. Here is Nana trying to smile and keep her eyes open so I could take a picture.

Chels being goofy!

MAM! =) She's so cute!

So here is just a bit of Lyns playing.

And here is Nana and Chels playing the clapping game. At the end she's real cute and says "Oh I messed up" Ha.

While I'm at it...

I'd like to introduce you to mr or mrs catepillar. I don't know which. Ha!
My dad found this outside and brought it in to show me.Everything deserves a name so I call it...Harold if it is a boy and Etta if it's a girl.
you decide. =) It was interesting.

Let's play ball...

Volleyball that is. =)


Not this last weekend but the weekend before I was able to travel with the family up to Albany to watch Lyns play volleyball. She played amazing!

On the way up I think...I caught him offgaurd. This is dribbler as we like to call him. Lynsey's boyfriend.

Well this was just kinda creepy cause it looks like she was frozen and time was rushing around her. Kinda trippy.
Here is a video of just one of the great hits she got.

=)

Happy day of my birth.

So I am WAY behind in my blogging lately. Sorry about that. Here are some pictures of my birthday dinner. My dad, Rick, Xavier, Nevaeh, Linda, Rusty, and I went to Carlos for dinner.


Here is me taking my own picture while I blow out the candle.
Rick and I on the way home.

My birthday cake that Linda got for me. It says Zippy that's what she calls me.

Nevaeh and I on the way home. I miss her!

This was like the millionth picture...he was not into it at all.

Linda and I =)

Rusty or Dusteeeeeee as I like to call him and I. =)

My dad and I =) =)

Rick and I.

I hate this part. =(

I am having a horrible time!
I hate goodbye's!
I hate when people leave me!

I am starting to wonder if this ever gets easier...
I love when my family comes to visit...but then I almost dread it...just for the simple fact I hate the part when I have to say goodbye to them.
I prepare myself days ahead that I will see them again, and tell myself not to cry.
However, it never works..I can never get through it the way I want to...I always end up blubbering like a baby.

So tonight...in about 3 hours and 15 minutes my cousin and the kids are loading up and heading home...and even typing this I find myself tearing up and getting myself all worked up.

So, I wonder...does it ever get easier?
I feel like not ever getting close to people because I don't like it when they leave me...and everyone is bound to leave at some point.
People come and go and it is a reality that you have to face...but I can never get the hang of it.

So I sit here...and wait...to say goodbye. =(

Hiking....

Today we went on a hike...
So here are some pictures of that and some other cute ones.
Enjoy! =)


Me and X-man trying to get a nice picture to send grandmaSmiling for the girls.
