JAMIE KRISTINE MILLER

Today would have been Jamie's 18th birthday. I can't believe how time flys. I normally don't do much on this date except go to the cemetary but I decided this was a big one so I placed some pictures depicted her great short life. She was a great joy and blessing in all who knew her. Happy Birthday Jamie. Our lamp is lit till we hold you in our arms again.

AND MATT
Matt was a little boy that was born two days before Jamie and lived across the street. They were inseperable from about time they learned how to walk.

BROOKLYN

I was going through some of my pictures and decided to dedicate a blogging session to Brooklyn. I had a bunch of random pictures of her that are just to cute to not share.

HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY OUR LILY IN RED

So Tara turned 30 on August 15th. I can't believe I have a child that old. I swear it was just last week when I found out I was pregnant with her. She has been a total joy in my life. I can't imagine life without Tara. I made her a special cake to be eaten at her 30th birthday party that Brandon held for her.

There are 30 characteristics on the right side of the cake that the family all came up with describing Tara.

Brooklyn was having a good time at the party.

MORE TIME WITH LORELAI AT JENNY'S WEDDING

We went to Jenny and Ben's wedding on 08/08/08. Emily and Preston came down from Idaho and met us there. As usual we had a wonderful time with Lorelai. I love the pictures of her and Tara.

Here's Tara and Grandma Lewis looking at Tara's wedding pictures.

This is Jenny's wedding cake that I made with Tara and Emily's help. Cakes just aren't the traditional look like they were before.

FISHING WITH GRANDPA

I was waiting to blog this part of our Ohio trip till Jeremy sent me some better pictures but since that hasn't happened yet I will just use the ones we have. The main event Kay wanted to do on our trip was take Cambri fishing. The last day we were there we finally got to go. He took Cambri to the sporting goods store and bought her a Disney Princess fishing pool. They went home and he took her out in the back yard and taught her how to cast. She picked it up pretty quickly. Then we were off to the lake. Jeremy took us to a beautiful lake. We had to hike for quite a while to get to it. Jeremy went back to the car after just a short time to see if he could find a closer way to get there. He did. He was able to park right next to the lake. But we had to hike for quite some time. Anyway it was a great evening fishing trip. The weather was perfect, the fish were biting, and Grandpa Kay was in heaven fishing with his granddaughter.

Tyler even enjoyed himself.

My happy fishing family.
