Caley and Pappy were in the Terrell parade Saturday! Dad made a sleigh to go over her 4 wheeler. She did awesome and was so proud of herself. It was really fun!

Preschool and Jack

Caley started a 'preschool' class on November 3rd! So far its going well. She cried on the 2nd day but hasn't cried since. The teachers told Pappy that she is VERY smart and the teacher told my mom that all the kids LOVE Caley. This is only through the month of November. It goes on throughout the year but its put a strain on everyone having to take her and pick her up.

Here is a picture of her on her first day!

And Jack...

I have never met precious Jack or his family in person but this little boy made such a big impact on so many lives. He was born with CHD (congenital heart defect) November 15, 2005. Jack was a couragious little man who lost his fight on October 31, 2008. Jack loved the color red and firetrucks. To honor him the kids and I wore red on the day of his funeral, we actually buried my uncle on the same day 8 years ago, we were with his parents and family in spirit.

Happy Halloween!

Caley wanted to be a pink butterfly this year but after going to the store with Nana and Pappy she settled for this purple butterfly.
Caden was a cute little pumpkin!
Chad, Dad and Scott were all just really ugly scary guys. Caley has been playing with these masks for weeks so that she wouldn't be scared of them, and she wasn't. Thankfully Caden is to little to know.

8 years

8 years... Sometimes 8 years feels like a life time ago, other times it feels like yesterday.
Uncle Bret passed away 8 years ago tonight. I remember that night. Where I was, what I was doing, the weather. Such a sad night for my entire family. I cant believe it's been 8 years. I was 17. The last 8 years have sort of gone by fast for the most part. Sometimes it seems like its going in slow motion.
I miss my uncle terribly. I know everyone in the family does too. Unfortunatly for us, life goes on. The minutes the day the months and the years - 8 years. He is the only person I've lost who I was really close too. Those first minutes, days and months you just don't know how to go on. You dont know how life will go on without your loved one. A lot of great things have happened in these 8 years for all of us and I'm so thankful for that. It breaks my heart he isnt here for these things. Seeing his daughter graduate high school and college. Meeting his sons wife and his first grandson, named after him. His wife who misses him dearly. All his great neices and nephews.
We miss you so much Uncle Bret. I think of you and miss you daily.
I love you Uncle Bret
