Live Life to the Fullest....Stands true.

Always tell the person that you love that you love them all the time when ever you get the chance. I could not imagine finding out something happening to JJ. On Christmas Eve after church service seeing live animals and little kids acting out the birth of Christ and being with friends and family JJ found out that 2 of his best friends were killed earlier that day during an avalanche. My heart broke for JJ and the family and friends of Erik and Jesse. Erik was married 3 months ago (I remember Josh showing me the invitation with their pictures on it), I could not imagine what went through his wife' s head at the moment she found out. I don't know what would go through my head, would it be something like "These people are playing a dirty joke", "what in the world am I going to do?", "why?", and of course the break down of tears. My heart goes out to her.

That same day we also found out that my cousin had her 1st baby. She had a beautiful baby boy. What a Christmas present that was! In one day just a few hours apart from each other God shows you what he can do. Bring someone into the world and out. And He shows you how short life can be that you should hold on to the people you love and not let go! JJ is on a plane now going back home (which I had to laugh because it has been 70 out here and he is going to be in the snow within one day!). I really wanted to go with him not only to spend time with him and to be with him but to see his family! I haven't seen his brothers and sister for a year now and his parents since May. They are a wonderful family which I can't wait to join. I couldn't go because I have a doctor's appointment for surgery! That is another story for a different day.

Hold on to the people you love and hug and kiss them everyday and always say you love them!


JJ~ I love you and always will!
