Father's Day

Well this for sure is one of the hardest days of the year for me. Today is father's day. And it is no way a bad day. I loved celebrating father's day. It's just hard to do with out a Dad. I think back on days like this and remember my dad and wish he was here. Some days I really feel like he's with me and last year on father's day I felt as though he was, but the same is not true this year. I think lately I've definitely neglected thinking about him at all. I've been so wrapped in all my problems, I forget him. Which saddens me more than anyone can know.

Anyway I'm not writing this so that anyone will feel bad for me or tell me how sorry they are for my loss. I'm writing this so I can constantly look back and remember my dad. And to tell everyone just how much I miss and love him. My dad was the best dad I could've ever asked for and wouldn't have wanted another one if I could've picked.

I miss you Dad and I hope you're in heaven smiling down on me and I pray that I will make you so proud one day :]

Love you Daddy

Me and My Dad :]

God bless

Congress 07

Well last weekend was congress...it was a great time!
Friday at 230 we had a rehearsal in the Giant Center for JOY! that was fun and confusing lol...then after that Emma , her parents and I went to Fudruckers...it was only my second time there and that was fun. Then we went back to the Hershey lodge and hung out there til the meeting. The meeting was great. Then after a long day I headed back to the Simmons Hotel and eventually went to sleep :]

Saturday...well it was crazy lol. First Kayla and I were late for JOY! in the morning haha...then we did JOY! and it was amazing! The meeting was great.. I love the general he has such a great way of keeping your attention and his jokes are pretty funny. Then I found Emma lol. Emma, her mom, Liz and I went back to the Hershey Lodge and got lunch at this cafe place...I got this roast beef and swiss sandwich and it was..well..disgusting haha :] Then we went back to Emma's aunt and uncles room to take a nap...but i couldn't take a nap so I went and roamed around. I first went down to star seach and I got bored so I went outside and hung out with Patrick for awhile then with Jamie and then I got bored there and I went to the main lobby and hung out with the Lyles, Louie and Nick for like a half hour or so..then they all had to leave to drive Rebecca St. James and Vicky Beeching to their sound check at the Giant Center....so then I hung out with Erin til we had our concert at the Giant Center...
