It's...Family time?

Hah. Get it? Kinda like hammer time, only a little less hammer -- a little more family.
My family means a lot to me -- Not that you would know because I don't talk about them much, but I'm going to post some pictures :)

This would be My mom -- One of my heroes. We've never had the best relationship, but it's slowly getting better.This is also my little cousin, Kendall. She's such a tough girl. She just had surgery -- which makes me wanna cry -- no girl, only 3 years old should ever have to have surgery. I love em both to death. These two pictures were on her 38th birthday -- St. Patrick's day too. Obviously one is the before, and one is the after...We've had this tradition in my family. Everyone has a party at my grandma's house, and my grandma buys the cake. Of course, she's the one who ends up putting it all over your face, but it works. And it works like this, you blow out your candles and someone grabs a handful of the cake (yes, a hand full of cake -- not just icing) and puts it all over your face. It's quite comical. One year, it was my 13th birthday, and it just so happens this was the year she started the tradition. So obviously, I never saw it coming. A little icing on my nose at first, ok, cool. Then, just then, I see this hand full of cake coming towards my face -- instant reaction, grab the hand thats holding the cake -- keep it away from you! And that's just what I did. Well, my Grandma's got some strength on me, so literally i ended up running away. I ran to the bathroom, and just as i closed the door she threw the cake at me -- ended up all over me, and her door. Every year someone tries to "cake" her, but it never works. I'll get her..one of these days.

This ^ happens to be another picture of my mom and me -- a very long time ago.

This ^ picture is of my Aunt Keby, My mom, My Uncle Garry, and me. This was when my mom graduated college (one of the many times...) Surprisingly this was about 1994....needless to say, you wouldn't be able to tell because of all the 80's hair. Hah!

This is my Dad, Grandma Cathy (My dad's mom), and my Uncle David. Oh, well, of course I'm in there too. This was at my dad's birthday "party" about 2 years ago. One person is missing from this picture, my Grandpa Roger, he passed away a couple days after Christmas 2007. Truth be told, I miss him a lot.
This would be my Dad. You could say that I guess. We dont have a relationship -- Good or Bad. It's non existant. But I guess I'm glad I have him, or atleast know him. A lot of people say we look alike, and if so -- I feel bad for myself :P Anyways, this picture was taken at the same time as the previous one, and even though I look happy, I really don't think I was.










Anyways, That's not even close to being all of my close family, but this blog has currently taken me all night -- and Sarah is sleepy.



Good night :)
