SAD DAY - HAPPY DAY

SAD NEWS FIRST: Today is a day I've been waiting a long time for - Becks was coming to KC with the LA Galaxy!!! I had in my hands the "Golden Ticket" (which means I have/had seats right behind the Galaxy bench), and now that ticket is not so "Golden".

I knew he wasn't going to play (because of his injured knee), but I was holding out hope that he would at least warm the bench - but that's not going to happen. David's father had a heart attack yesterday, and he went back home to London to be with him....which of course if the right thing to do. My prayers are with the Beckham family for a healthy and speedy recovery. Get better Daddy Beckham!!!

So --- I'll just have to renew my season tickets and try again next year. :)

NOW FOR THE HAPPY NEWS: A VERY VERY bright spot for the day is that it was announced that GARTH IS COMING TO KC!!!!!

Garth is one of my absolute favorites (I've seen him several times) and you can bet your bottom dollar I'll be there November 14th with bells on!!!!

Now.....If I could only meet him!!!! (hee hee)

GARTH IS COMING!!! GARTH IS COMING!!!

I'M SOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!

Rascal Flatts are coming back to KC this year (actually - 1 month from today) and I got my tickets a couple weeks ago. We'll be up front (fan club tickets)....and yes I'll be dragging John along again this year---LOL!!!

Well....for the BIG news....today I found out that I get to meet them!!!!

To say I'm totally siked would be an understatement. :)

The best sound in the world

Tah Dah!!! All caught up finally!!!

To family and friends - I'm sorry it's taken me so long to get back to blogging.....but we're baaaack!!! :)

And to show you just how up to date we are around here now, this picture was taken just today. Emmy rockin' the piggies!!! LOL

I found a cool program that makes slides and that's what I've done to catch up so you can see what we've been up to the past few months and so you can see just how much our little girl is changing.

I go back and look at the older pictures quite often - and I can't believe how fast she is growing. She gets more beautiful every day - and we thank GOD for her every day.

I can't imagine our lives without her.

I hope you enjoy a little catching up (ok - a lot!!) and I promise to do better. My next task is to try and get some videos up on the site. Keep your fingers crossed. :)

Labor day weekend John and I went to the Midwest's largest Christian festival at Starlight Theatre and had an awesome time!!!

August

10-Year Anniversary (8/2/07)

On August 2nd, John and I celebrated our 10-year wedding anniversary and he sent me these amazing roses at work (with Papa John's pizza).

If it looks like a lot of roses, it's because there was a lot....120!!! (a dozen for every year we've been married). Is he incredible or what?!?!!?

Later that evening we went to dinner at the Herferd House (where we held our wedding reception). It was a great meal, and it was even more special with Emily there.
