Emotional Day

We got to Missouri yesterday to visit the Ward Family and to spend some time with Dad Ward. He has been pretty ill for the past few months, when we got here Dad was in bed being cared for by the love of his life. He was able to hear us and reply when asked a question. Harry's Dad was a great man but lost his fight to his illness this afternoon with his family and loved ones gathered around him. We were here in time to say our good byes and see the little twinkle in his eye one last time. This is a man that I admired greatly. He welcomed me into this family with open arms and was only ever worried about our happiness. I know I married a man that will take care of me and love me the way his Dad loved his Mother.

This is a cute picture of Harry and his Dad.

Long time a comin.

I have been working for the Post Office for little over 2 yrs now, and have not had more then 4 days off in a row. And that was only once or twice. I requested a week off this month and after weeks of games and torture it finally got approved. We are leaving next week on Friday for a week in Missouri. We get to drive which will not be fun, but one of the best parts is we are picking up our new puppy on the way. Tucker is getting big and we can't wait to hug and kiss him. Here are a few pics of him from a few weeks ago.
