Your gonna miss this.......
She was staring out the window of their SUVComplaning, saying
"I can't wait to turn 18"
She said "I'll make my own money, and I'll make my own rules
"Mamma put the car in park out there in front of the school
Then she kissed her head and said
"I was just like you
"You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this
Before she knows it she's a brand new bride
In a one-bedroom apartment, and her daddy stops by
He tells her "It's a nice place"She says "It'll do for now"
Starts talking about babies and buying a house
Daddy shakes his head and says
"Baby, just slow down"
Cause you're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days
hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this
Five years later there's a plumber workin' on the water heater
Dog's barkin', phone's ringin'One kid's cryin', one kid's screamin'
And she keeps apologizin'
He says "They don't bother me.
I've got 2 babies of my own.
One's 36, one's 23.
Huh, it's hard to believe, but...
You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this"
The kids are 7 and 3 and when I heard this song on the radio the other day I teared up thinking about how much they have grown and how they will continue to grow......Its amazing that we are handed such precious gifts.......I remember saying "I cant wait" for certain milstones in their life and as they accomplish those things part of me is sad because they are growing so fast and I know it is sometimes crazy or hectic, but I know I will miss this...............

Okay......I know its been a while I have been slacking but I'm back!!!
We have been super crazy busy it seems since school got out and things are finally settling down a little bit. We went to arizona so Will could help his grandpa fix up his childhood home. We had an awesome time. It is a super super small town I'm talking two blinks you might miss it. The kids got to ride their bikes in the street, feed pigs, and just be kids. It was so nice to feel no rush to be here or go there (there were only a few places to go or be so we had to pace ourselfs =). I was so glad that we decided to make it a family trip. Kaylee thought it was so cool that the street where grandpas house was was "Bigler Ave" how cool is it to have a street named after your family. Wills dad payed the kids $1.00 to help move wood to the wood pile, and of course my smart little kaylee figured out after carrying one piece of wood by hand that grandpas got to have a wheelbarrow somewhere, which she found, and used........shes definatley a thinker. The funniest part was that she convinced Jeremy to load the wood in the wheelbarrow while she "held it" steady.....so basically she earned her money by standing there holding the handle of the wheelbarrow while Jeremy did the hard labor......shes definatley going to go very far in life!!
Will and I just had our 10 year wedding anniversary.....I cant believe it we had so much fun. Will planned a dinner/fireworks cruise on the hornblower in san diego. The dj played our wedding song and we danced.........talk about bringing back the memories. I have to say I feel so blessed to be married to my best friend, and to still feel the butterflies in my stomach when he kisses me, I think after ten years thats saying alot....okay that might of been too much info for some.....after the cruise we went back to our hotel downtown and were trying to convince ourselfs that we could go to a club or little bar and hang out for a couple hours and dance........we came to the conclusion that we are too old and boring now and nothing really sounded better than going to sleep......
Well this is a little long now and I dont want to bore anyone so I am going to try to download some pics.......dial up ........if there is no pic its because I ran out of patience!!
