sometime's life is okay.

I wish I had a better exscuse for where I've been. I haven't been incredible busy or doing much of anything really. I guess I've just been enjoying summer. Its crazy to think, that when I was in high school I wanted to be a writer and now I find it very hard to take the time out of my day to sit down and write. What's with this? maybe I actually have finally started with some "hobbies." I'm taking the Wilton Cake Decorating class at my Hobby Lobby. So fun!!!!! Seriously, why didn't I do this before! I can't wait for next month..Fondant!

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer!

Today is the Tuesday after Memorial Day. Its a day a lot of people dread, and for our family its a day we've been dreading it more than most. My cousin, Johnny, was deployed today. He's married to AN AMAZING woman and they're expecting they're first child, due in August. We grew up together in San Antonio. My aunt would take care of me while my mom was working and my sister and brother were at school. It was GI JOES and Hot Wheels for so many years. We'd make mud pies in the back yard and my Aunt Marilyn would throw us, Johnny, Cody, and myself, in the tub together to try to get a little clean. Though he's been living in San Diego for a year and I don't get to see him nearly as often as I like, I know we have the bond that a lot of cousins wish they had. I don't think twice to say I love him, and he doesn't think twice to say he loves me. I'm so proud to say my cousin is doing what he's doing and he's doing a DAMN GOOD job at it. If you get the chance, send a little prayer his way.
