Today was the birthday to some very special people in our lives. Happy birthday Marvin and Lori! We miss you like crazy and wish you could've been here for us to have a party and share strawberry pie, cake and rocky road ice cream.
We were at my mother-in-law's house yesterday, and the whole day I kept thinking Marv would come around the corner or out of the bedroom door any second. He was such a great father-in-law. It's been a little over a year since he passed away, and I still can't believe he's gone. He was so full of life...the Energizer Bunny. I miss his energy, the way he loved to eat, the good food he cooked, and the way he loved people...especially his family. I could go on all night about what a wonderful man he was.
I think about my sister-in-law, Lori often too. I wish she could've met our kids. I think Emma looks just like her. She was so beautiful...blonde, cute little build, pretty lips. She was always teasing us about having children, and I hate it she's not here to enjoy them now. She loved her own kids so much, I just know she would've been a fantastic aunt.
I know our dynamic duo is having a ball today. I'm sure they've had their fair share of strawberry pie (probably the best ever), cake, and rocky road ice cream!
