July comes in and goes out with a B00M!!!!! So many milestones this July I’ll recap only for posterity…

New glasses… YaY!! Michael’s Aunt Alice Marie turns 80, Mom to the ER, not once but twice, The Hultner’s hosted Katy & Ryan’s fabulous engagement party. Gina’s 1st birthday/baptism and her twin Thomas’s memorial. Bumpty laid eggs, Riley’s 6th birthday; “The Mrs.” laid a baker’s dozen. My beloved Uncle Carl passed away at home surrounded by family. Leann & Matt’s 3rd wedding anniversary, KT continues to help me purge as we plan her wedding and enjoyed her 27th birthday the same day Sandy turned 68. Carter’s camping @ Palomar…. Kari due… no Ollie this month! Year end for our business… busy, busy, busy!

Talk about a rollercoaster ride… this month definitely had its high, high moments and some very low ones as well. But without pain, there can be no pleasure. Without sadness, there can be no happiness. Without misery there can be no beauty. And without these, life is endless, hopeless, doomed and damned. Yep, the month was full…. full of family, just the way I like it =]
