~What happens between cousins, stays between cousins~

My cousins are in town for my Uncle's memorial tomorrow.  As a young kid one of my favorite memories of my cousin Danny was of course his PeeWee Herman voice!  He is the BEST at doing that voice!   I can HONESTLY say that I DO NOT have a favorite cousin!!  They are all wonderful!!

June 10, 2014 - Happy Birthday Uncle Bobby!

Happy Birthday Uncle Bobby!

On this very day in 1936, my Uncle Bobby entered this world! This is the 1st Birthday that he isn't here with us.  Just 2 short weeks after we received the news that he was gone.

 

Sending a special birthday wish to heaven,
from your niece who loves you very much!
May all your heavenly wishes come true,
hope your birthday’s the greatest, I Love you, Uncle Bobby!

Uncle Bobby

 

 “I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life. I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life." I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one. I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I've learned that I still have a lot to learn. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
