14 years & counting

June 19th was our 14th wedding anniversary. Wow, how our life has changed since then. We have moved 4times, bought two houses,and  had two kids. I think back on that day and how I would have love to change 100 things about our wedding from the place, the colors, the music etc. Actually, I get a little sad thinking about it. After 14years, I don't speak to any of my bridesmaids and maid of honor. Every anniversary I think of this and it's very saddening. I was talking about this to a co-worker and she was surprised and said that her wedding party contained  her cousins. I told her one of mine was my cousin & I don't speak to her either. I think not having a sibling makes it harder because I put a lot into a friendship and then end up left when you each go your separate ways due having kids,  life events, etc.  I regret a lot but in the end, I married my best friend!
We didn't do anything for our anniversary but spend 7 hours in the car driving to Gulf Shoes AL. We had a great trip to the beach.

Granny

Ty had a Cubscout camp out two weekends ago. I didn't go and I thought I would let the boys have some bonding time. My dad went too. They had fun. I also had a good weekend besides loosing my wallet ( which I had left at work) and locking me and EJ out of the house as we were leaving for church. 
My grandmother was diagnosed with Melanoma abiut three weeks ago. What a shock to our family. They gave her 6 months to a year. Well the weekend of the camp out, she became really sick. On that Monday, I had a feeling I needed to go see her. I left work and drove the hour drive to the nursing home. She was unresponsive for the most part. My parents spent the night with her. I held her hand and she would look at me and moan but I am not sure if she knew me or not. My hearts broken. My mom called earlier than her morning call to tell me that she had gone at 4am. I had gone about a week before and she was good. Donn and  I were leaving her and I asked if she needed anything before we were leaving and she said " just to go home". Can't blame her at all. While there, she was telling a nurse, " this is my favorite granddaughter" of course I corrected her and she smiled. I was the only grand child she kept on a regular basis. I tried to explain to Ty that she use to be just like my mom ( his Mema). She would take me places and I spent summers with her. She also kept me from age 2-5. I would cry all the home that I wanted my Granny. My heart is broken and I miss her.

Happy Birthday to my wonderful mom & the best Mema ever!
She has been through a lot since November. I cooked her and my dad dinner for once. Baked sweet sour chicken & fried rice, then Boston cream poke cake, yummy if I do say so. She had made Ty a key lime pie.
