Black ISLAND Farms

Dax's preschool class went on a field trip to Black Island Farms the other day they had so much fun..Big hay slides, animal train rides, big jumping pumpkin, hayrides,goat feedings, music and pig races. Dax and his friend Tate had the same shirts on and they were so cute together Dax kept telling everyone that him and Tate had matching shirts. The hayride was alot of fun they kids got to pick pumpkins, I wasn't going to get Logan one because I kindof felt bad because I didn't even have to pay for her (it is not like she did a bunch of stuff and I could have paid for her they did alot of fun stuff for just $4.00). One of the funny things about that day is when we put the kids on the animal train I put Dax and Logan together and Heather put Tate and Dylan..so the train left went behind some corn and around and around and when it came back there were all the kids but Dylan and Heather was like oh my heck where is he and we are laughing and we go over by Tate's train car and Dylan is inside the cart down below with a huge smile.

Always remembered never forgotten

Always remembered never forgotten these words mean so much to me.. The first year after I lost Carter, I remember sitting in my front room and and my neighbor bringing over these flowers the flower place left at her house and me thinking who sent me flowers not Chad, but two gals that me more to me then they will ever know. I remember crying before I even opened the card seeing the words "Always remembered never forgotten, We love you Carter." As I write this I get all teary eyed and it has been over 4 years sense that card. These gals have always been there for me and I have always been my best friends even if we dont see each other alot or do alot they are always the best, but when I lost Carter I could not even talk to them, even a text message was so hard for me, I didn't know what to say but I later realized I didn't need to say anything I just needed them. I have not shown very many people pictures of Carter but they have seen him. What brings this story up is that my aunt and uncle lost there son a year ago tomorrow and I am not a person good with words at all so when I was thinking about there loss this kept popping up in my head "Always remembered never forgotten" so I sent flowers with that on them, my Uncle called today to say thanks and me not being good at words at all cried. All that I could tell him was that Nick ways loved and never forgotten. We Love you Nick
