Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving was AMAZING!!!
Great people, great food, and wonderful memories!
Couldn't ask for better. :)

So Wednesday My Brother and Sister in law came down to spend Thanksgiving with us! I was really excited cause its been years, the last time was about 4 years ago that we spent Thanksgiving with them. So it was pretty exciting..

That night Logan needed to let lose! Ha
Him and Mike stayed up and played games, (Drinking games) Logan doesn't drink. But he had SO much stress built up that he really needed this. So the night ended up like this...

Passed out with all the dogs. :) I really think that he had a good time and i know my brother was proud to be the first to get him a little tipsy.

So now on to Thanksgiving day! :)
We woke up and started cooking the wonderful meal.
I got to make this really cute veggie tray that i go from Pintrest. And i think it turned out really cute. I was pretty impressed.


We didn't do much but just hang out with great company. We watched our Cowboys beat some ass. Haha not really they only one by 1 and at the VERY last second. But hey the still WON right.
I love that im able to be with Logan and my wonderful family for the holidays. I love this time and i love that we make such great memories. :)
Thanksgiving was amazing cause i had such great people spending it with me..



We are true COWBOYS fan right there


I sure love my Brother and sister! They make me whole.

Us girls getting our spoon on after dinner. Getting ready for BLACK FRIDAY.

OH MY
Black Friday was so crazy..

So Myself, My mom, Celest, Breanna, and Barb all went to walmart at 9:00. Wish we got there a little sooner. The didn't start opening things till 10. We thought an hour before we would be good. Wrong. People had been there from 7:00 even soon. Yeah talk about crazy. So we all split up, so we could all get what we wanted. Mom and Celest went to Toys, Breanna went to kids clothes, and Barb and I went to Movies. When it hit 10 everyone staring YELLING and going CRAZY. To say the least it was CRAZY haha can i say that once more! CRAZY!!! But totally worth it! I love the feeling of craziness. haha I think that we got pretty good deals. I was happy with what i got and for the price..
After Walmart Logan Barb and Myself heading into Salt Lake. We went to Shopko, the mall and Target. We got so more good stuff at great prices. Walmart was by far the WORST. We ended up not getting home till 6:30 and by that time i was so tired i couldn't even get up till Noon haha..
But again it was worth all the craziness and the lack of sleep..

I love it and cant wait to do it again new year.. 

Here is a picture of walmart right when it was all about to start. haha



HOPE YOU ALL HAD A WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING!!!!! I KNOW I DID!!

He makes me laugh all the time, with the cute little comments he says. He makes my heart melt when just out of the blue he will come hug me and say in my ear, Mommy i love you!! He makes my life worth living, he is the breath inside me and my smile on my face. I'm so thankful that god pick me to be his mom! I love him more then words can express!

We have had our hard times but i don't want to go through these hard times with anyone else but him. I love him so much and still get the teenager feeling when i talk about him..He makes me a better person,  He is the one that knows me and loves me for ME. Logan  still and always will make my heart skip a beat. I'm thankful for Logan love.


My Parents.
These two amazing people are my rock, my back bones. They are why I'm the person i am today. They are my best friends and the ones i can laugh and talk about anything.

P.S This was my 400 POST!!!!!!!!
WOOT WOOT for me haha



Ryan Paul Garcia

Well here i am again talking about a death in the family..
I feel like in the last few months this is all i post about.. 
death.
and I'm tired of it. 
I think 6 in a year is far to many..
My heart hurts.


RYAN PAUL GARCIA
39 years old


Most of you don't know that Logan had an other older brother. RYAN. He was Sam (Logan dad) Son. Sam was married before he was married to Barb. And that where Ryan came from.. 
Anyways When Logan was growing up Ryan lived with them most of his life. On and off. So Logan grew up knowing Ryan and being with Ryan. About a year before Sam died Ryan went off and tried to do his own thing. Long story short he got into drugs and didn't keep in touch with ANY of his family. Sad right, Well when Sam died Logan saw him for about a month after and then Ryan didn't want anything to do with family again! So for 9 year Logan hasn't had anything to do with his brother. Not Logan choice but Ryan's. Logan tried and tried to reach out to be with his brother again but Ryan wanted nothing with his family.. So in the three years i have never meant Ryan or really know anything about him. That makes me really sad. I look at this picture and think that we would of gotten along so well. Logan would of had another brother to talk to and have fun with...
The story goes on and on but i wont keep going.. 

So yesterday i got a call from Barb saying that she had some bad news. 
Ryan had died. 
My heart just dropped.
I then started worrying cause i didn't know how Logan was going to take it.
Logan is the kind of person who holds EVERYTHING inside and doesn't show his true feelings. So i was worried.
Barb said that Ryan just Friday got out of a 90 day Rehab, she said that they don't know what the cause was but they think it was a heart attack. Logan's Grandpa, as well as his Dad died from a heart attack. Ryan had, had 2 in years before. So it a high chance thats what it could of been. 
When Logan got home, we told him and he took it okay. He was mad, He was mad that Ryan wanted nothing to do with him, mad that Ryan didn't want a relationship with anyone. I think it just hurt him that he didnt have the chance to be brothers with him. 

I know I didnt get to know Ryan like i wish i was able to. But i know that he was an amazing man, If he was anything like his dad he was very strong. I wish more then anything he is with his dad and being able to start a NEW and BETTER relationship with him. And i know one day Logan will be able to share that with BOTH of them.. RYAN may you always rest in peace! You will be missed by so many people, and i wish i was able to meet you, and you meet connor i know he would of loved you. Watch over us and tell Sam we love him and miss him!

Fly high with you dad and always watch over your BROTHER Logan.
