He touched and affected so many lives. He will be missed very much by a lot of people. Although we miss him, we know that because of his faith in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ he now is in Heaven.

Memorial Day/My Birthday Weekend

I went home this past weekend for Memorial Day and my birthday. It was a great weekend. Friday night when I got home, Ryan and I went out to eat at the Olive Garden. Then we went to watch Pirates of the Caribbean. Saturday, we took Ryan's friend Chris from Ohio fishing for most of the day, then we hung out with my parents. Sunday, we went to church and then to Ryan's softball game. I then got to hang out with Erin for the rest of the evening (much needed and long over due time to spend with her). Monday, we we had the picnic at my house and Cyndi, Jess, and Cliff also came to join the family. It was so nice to be able to see everyone. Thanks for a great weekend!

Potter County 2007

This past weekend, I drove down to Potter County to be with Ryan and his family. It was a wonderful trip. I got to do some hiking, fishing, cooking, and spending some quality time with my love. I just wish I could have stayed longer and that my time there wouldn't have went so fast. I will be going home though soon for memorial day!!!

Weekend at Julies

Last weekend, Julie went home from Philidelphia, so I drove out to Central NY to see her! It has been a while since I have been able to hang out with her... so it was very nice. Also, Laura came up from Cornell to hang out with us too! It was a nice weekend!

Easter Weekend/Brooke's Birthday

I got to go home to celebrate Brooke's birthday and Resurrection Sunday. It was a nice but busy weekend. We got to color some eggs and hang out at my sister's house for a while. That was nice, because I done that in a while. I had to run to Altoona to pick something up, and since Ryan was napping I just left him there... hehe. Saturday was the Bob's Creek clean up. I didn't participate, because I had to help get ready for Brooke's party, but I went up early in the morning to have some great breakfast with the guys at the barn. Then it was time for Brooke's 12th birthday party. It was a nice time, but I cannot believe that she is 12... wow. Sunday we just went to Ryan's church then ate all day. Linda made lasaugna for lunch, then my mom made some ham and all of the fixings for dinner. Before I knew it, it was time again to leave my baby and head back to Buffalo :-( ....I am excited though, because in a few weeks I get to go to Potter County for the annual Ickes fishing trip. I had such a wonderful time last year with my babe, and I have been looking forward to going again.


I love him!

Ryan was so excited about coloring eggs!!!

We sure had fun coloring eggs... hehe
