In Memory of Thomas A. Keepers

Last Friday on my way to work I received some shocking news. My father Thomas A. Keepers passed away during the night. They say he passed away sometime during the night in his sleep, which is the way he had hoped to go. I took it much harder than I had ever imagined. Because during life we only allow ourselves to remember the bad and it is only in death that we begin to remember the good and then we miss it.

Until we meet again Dad! I really did and still do Love you!

I have always missed my dad, but now it's permanent.

A Great Man

This is my husband Michael, with our youngest grandson/child Ollie Vaughn. Michael isn't Ollie's real blood biological Pop Pop, but that makes no difference to either of them. This is and will be the only Pop Pop Ollie will ever know. And Michael is such an amazing human being that he doesn't care if any of the kids and grandkids actually have his blood flowing through their veins, it's all about love, compassion and caring. He loves them and they love him. From day one when Michael first met my children they accepted him and have always made him feel loved and important! When Father's Day or his birthday come around he is the one who is important to them. Why? Because he shows that love and caring to all of them too. He has never said or made any kind actions as to these being my children/grandchildren....he always says they're OUR CHILDREN or OUR GRANDBABIES. 

There are so many reasons I fell in love with this man and this just adds to it!

Fourth of July Fun 2010!

On July 2nd all 3 of our Grandbabies spent the night at our house, for a very special reason. Michael and I were going to take them to their first ever parade. Saturday July 3rd the city of Tooele was holding their 4th of July parade and my brother Trent got to drive the float for the Hospital that my sister works at.
So I woke up at 5:30 am and started to get ready and then eventually got everyone else up. We got to Tooele and found ourselves a prime spot for Michael, myself , Dakota, Kaitlyn, Quynn, Blair and Oliver!

We all had such a great time and I have to say the Kids and Grandbabies Love A Parade!!! And Grammy and Pop Pop loved taking them!
