When someone
you love becomes
a memory... that
memory becomes a
treasure
you love becomes

treasure
That somebody I love is my Dad. I can't believe that today the 31st will be the 2 year mark of when he died. 2 years? It feels like an eternity. I love my daddy so much, and miss him so much. It's getting easier not having him around, but it is still super duper hard. I'm finally to the point where I don't dwell on it, and let it consume me. Yes I still think about him, and that's why I love this saying so much. He is a memory that I will always treasure. For Christmas my Mom gave each of us that saying. She made it for a relief society Super Saturday project. This is what it looks like:
This one is a very special, and very sentimental. My Dad used to give all of us kids wheel barrel rides around the block. We still have the wheel barrel!
We had a barn growing up, and a big pasture. We had Lot's of goats! I have Lot's of good memories of my Dad and the goats.
Me on my Baptism day. I'm so glad my Dad was able to be the one to baptise me!
My Dad and I at a Merry Miss Daddy Daughter activity. We had a fun time!
My Dad was famous for trying to blow out other peoples birthday candles. He was a big tease! So here I am on my birthday(I think I was 14) covering my Dad's mouth so he can't blow out MY CANDLES! LOL =)
My Dad loved to try new things. He decided that we were going to breed beagles. Here he is holding one of the beagle pups. I think it's really sweet!
My Dad and McKenzie when she was about 9 months. He was really good with her, and she loved her Papa Kotter! She still does.
I love this picture of my Mom and Dad, and Kenzie. We had gone on a hike together up to Donut falls. Fun times!!!Dad I miss you, but I know that we will be together again. Love you with all my heart.
