Spending Time with my nephew



So the for the last little bit most of my free time has gone to spending time with my two year old nephew, Jackson. That kid is so much fun to play with that I forget that I have no life and a two year old is my best friend :) Lately we have made sugar cookies. It was fun because that kid loves to help. I would be rolling out the dough and he would yell "I do, I do" so we would have to get him his own dough and his own rolling pin. It was fun. We made pumpkin monsters and ghosts. He would always hand the cut out cookies to his mom and say "he you go mommy."



We also dressed up for Halloween as Crayons. He was red and I was white. My brother-in-law kept saying that I looked like a member of the KKK but I was not!!!! I was a crayon. It was fun trick-or-treating with him. He would walk up to the door and knock and when they would answer he would say "I want candy." They would give him candy and he would say "thank you." My favorite house was the one where the lady said he could take two. He took three boxes of dots and then saw some tootsie rolls so he took two of those. The lady just laughed and said he could have as much as he wanted. Its a good thing he is so cute, otherwise he would get into more trouble.

Grandma Cruickshank My Best Friend



Last night my Grandma Cruickshank passed away. It has been hard letting go but I know that she has gone to a far better place. My grandma has meant so much to me while I have been growing up. I remember when she lived in Canada and I was a little girl we would go up and visit her and just have a ball. She always had a smile on her face and always joked around. I was lucky that she was always in good health and would run and play with us. As I got older I learned more from her then I ever thought one person could teach you. She was the best cook and baker that I have ever known. I got my love of cooking from her, we would spend hours in the kitchen together making food laughing and joking around. When she would live with us for six months I would take her with me everywhere. I loved driving her around and having one-on-one time with her. My grams and I are a lot alike. She always wanted the best for me and I loved spending so much time with her. I have been so blessed to have her in my life. As hard as it is for me to let her go I want the best for her and know that this was her time. Its what she wanted, she has been a widow for almost 30 years so she is now happily reunited with my grandfather. I love her so much!

I am...


You Are...Elizabeth Bennet!
You are Elizabeth Bennet of Pride & Prejudice! You are intelligent, witty, and tremendously attractive. You have a good head on your shoulders, and oftentimes find yourself the lone beacon of reason in a sea of ridiculousness. You take great pleasure in many things. You are proficient in nearly all of them, though you will never own it. Lest you seem too perfect, you have a tendency toward prejudgement that serves you very ill indeed.

Chad, rocked it everytime!

Katie and I, I kicked her trash because I'm awesome!
