If there is one thing I can't stand its when 1.) people make a bigger deal out of things then what really needs to be.... 2.) when people metal in each others business and really shouldn't.....

Thats it for now... Thanks for letting me vent!!! :)

Kenneth

SO I know this is late in posting but last Friday, March 5th was 11 years since my brother passed away.. So here is a little story my sister Kristin sent to us that happend on that day. Every year on his birthday everyone in my family releases balloons to Kenneth, and its just our way of letting him know we are thinking of him and love him, and really miss him!!!!




I got this message from a girl, Marcia, that I went to school with, she and I were in the same classes at Eastwood Heights, Knolls and then she dropped out our Junior Year of HS. I haven't talked to her in YEARS, probably since even before she dropped out. We are friends on facebook, and today she sent me this message, so I thought I would share with you! Kenneth touched lives we didn't even know about!
LOVE
Kristin

Hi Kristin,

I never had an opportunity to express my condolescences to you and your family.

I would like to share something with you that perhaps you didn't know. I met your brother in highschool. Yes. Highschool. See, Kristin, I was dropped out of school in Spring 1993. I had my son in October of that year. I'll fast forward to 5 years later where I was granted special permission by Mrs. Matthews, YISD and the State of Texas (I was 22 at the time) to return to highschool to finish my senior year. While in school in the year of '98-'99, I had the priviledge of meeting your brother in the tutoring center. He was so welcoming, so smart and had a smile that only he could inhibit. I knew he was your brother and to be honest with you I was embarrassed to ask about you.

I remember that day very well. I was in Spanish class when Mrs. Matthew's voice came over the intercom and in a very broken and heartfelt tone informed us all of Kenneth's passing. I will never forget it.

I truly am sorry for that loss you and your family had to endure. And I too, will release a balloon in his honor.

Sincerely,
Marcy

The Bachelor

Serious Blog neglect...

Well its been FOREVER since I last updated my blog and for all you know I could be married and having a baby but we all know thats a LIE!!!!! I finished classes at school, and I have been teaching a TON at school and I even took a National Certification Test... went to Utah 2 times, am close to getting a new car (well maybe depending if I want to have a car payment again) and a whole bunch of other stuff..... We even had SNOW in El Paso... yes you read that correctly.... SHOCKER!!! :) I can't wait for Christmas to come because that means all my little kiddies will be here and I think they are the coolest kiddos around!!! and of course my brother and sisters to be here as well.. but the best part is going to be that I have a little more then 2 weeks off of work!! YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.... well I would upload some pictures but it won't let me...

It seemed everything I did was wrong and then I tried to fix it and then that ended up wrong.... So here is to the new me.... I am changing my attitude and going from there.... Also school starts this week so that will be good!!! Wish me luck!! :)

Classic Quote from my Dad................

The End

Interesting......

I just found this interesting, but can't really say that I am that shocked.... As I opened my e-mail today the advertisment that popped up on the screen almost made me teary eyed.... It stated "The Book of Mormon is on the list of 20 books that has changed America." Some big shot book editor said that, and then there was a link to a page where you could request your free book... as I sat there looking at that advertisment I became really greatful for that gosh darn book... As I read the pages in it, I know that it is true, and I just have a simple testimony about it, I mean its nothing, but that I simply know that its true.. and I wish that everyone could see and know of the truths that I know and love so much....




Anyways in other new of my life... Lately I have felt like I am tired of being tired, and don't feel like I have time for much of anything..... I am having a blast at work, and really starting to get into a groove of things, now if I could just get the nights taken care of and not have to work, but I think that this might be my last night to do that... But things are good, Kimber is here with her kids and they are so funny, and I love them to death...Anyways-- thats all for now, I have to run and go make up a test for the night class!!!

I think I need a vacation!!! :)

Summer Vaca! and work work work!

I know that I haven't updated in a while..... I have been working and then driving to Utah for family vacation and then back up there for the 4th of July.. Its been a whirl wind couple of weeks, and now I was thrown a big curve ball today at work that now I will be teaching classes 8-1, 1-6, and 6-10, for now until we can find a new instructor! and hopefully that is soon because I can't forget one of the biggest reasons I moved home for was to go to school- and that starts in August, well we hope it does!!!
Also WELCOME BABY ELLA- to my sister Kimberley and Tyler-- she is so cute and I love her so much!!! and if you look real close you can see that Jack wanted Ella to "lick" him just like his mom!!!
