I like this song so much!

Kelsey has got me addicted to a new song!!!

Want to hear this cool song - click here

We had so much fun last Saturday afternoon. I asked Kelsey and Jess to help me add some new songs to my blog playlist, so we sat around laughing and talking and dancing. Kelsey reminded me of an Owl City song that I love called “Fireflies.” I put it on my playlist and so far I haven’t grown tired of it. I love hanging out with my girls (Bre was there, too.) It reminds me of when I was a teenager!

The Sunday Before Memorial Day

I was very excited to find these digital photos.

Have you ever forgotten that you have taken some photos and when you come upon them you get so happy?

That's how I felt yesterday when I found these pics from the Sunday before Memorial Day.

How's your knee feeling?

Brett injured his knee on Labor Day 2009. He was playing softball and as he ran into third base, his foot caught on the edge of the base and twisted his knee. He has been in a lot of pain. The knee was so swollen, he couldn’t bend it or put any weight on it. He has had to use crutches to get around.

After three days of hobbling, Breanna (five years old at the time) asked

“Dad, when will your knee be better - How are you doing?”

Brett told her “It will probably be a little while - It’s getting a little better every day but it might take some time to completely heal.”

“Okay,” Breanna said, “Well I’m going to ask you every day and say ‘How’s your knee feeling?”

Brett laughed and thought that was really cute but never expected her to follow through.

The next day when Brett got home from work, Breanna greeted him at the door with a big hug. She said, “How’s your knee feeling today, Dad?”

She made Brett laugh again and he responded, “It’s feeling a little better.”

She said, ”Remember I’m going to ask you every day!”

And she has asked every day without fail. Sometimes she forgets when Brett first arrives home but later she will say, “Oh, I forgot to ask you, ‘How is your knee feeling today? - Cuz, remember, I’m going to ask you every day!”

Every time she asks, it makes Brett’s day. Our little girl is so full of love! She is definitely a Daddy’s girl!

"Pokey" Ear

I have been scrapping old photos this Sunday afternoon. Brett walked into the room and said "Who's little girl is that?"

"It's ours - that's Breanna," I said laughing. (It's amazing how much memory loss you can have in five years)

"She looks a lot like Brynn!" (our one year old granddaughter)

"Look, her left ear is a little 'pokey' just like Brynn's," I said.

Hhhmmmm - Lightbulb moment!!! I didn't realize that came from our side of the family. I always blamed it on Luke's genes. Guess I was wrong. LOL!!!

Take a look
