9-11

I guess it's one of those days...you will NEVER forget where you were, and more importantly, how you felt. I was working the switchboard at the hospital. In those days we had a window and the surgery waiting room in front of us with a  TV playing. Of course everyone was in shock and I just felt scared. I had a pretty sheltered, safe life and that was the first time I really felt scared. I had no idea what it all meant and what was to come. After work seeing the lines of people at the gas stations...more fear. It still breaks my heart to think about what the people there and on the planes must have felt if I was that scared while safe in Arkansas. I am so very thankful for what all the first responders did that day and in the days following. As terrible as it was I miss how united we were as a nation at that time. ~Just remembering those who lost their lives that day and the people that loved them.~

Catch up

Dipping back into the blogging world! I didn't really get too into it before. I have a hard time thinking anyone cares about my day to day life but decided to try it again and stick with it- just for me. I want to be able to look back on the memories.

     Catch up:  In the last year we bought a house, mom and dad moved in next to us, spent lots of time with our sweet 2 year old nephew Garrett Preston, played more Rook games than I can count, lots of time with our best friends (police families), a couple road trips, work, and hunting. Tons of good memories made with my best friend who just happens to be the best husband in the world, for real.

After a LONG work week I am so looking forward to a weekend with my sweetie, lots of playing with Garrett, and a baby shower for our sweet friends, Davie, Cara, and baby Duke!
