I am sitting here watching HLN and wondering what is up with all these sick and demented people that go out and kill their child or someone else's. Below is just three examples. Then there is this women who throws her two kids off of a bridge. I don't have all the details on that, but it is sick and wrong. her son died with hr daughter holding her brother in her arms in the water. Ughhh, just really ticks me off.
Melissa Huckaby was charged with raping, killing 8 yr old Sandra Cantu and her body was found on April 6th. She was also found that she kidnapped and drugged another child. This woman seemed as normal as most I know. She was a Sunday School teacher and Sandra was her daughters friend.
Police say the mother of 3-year-old boy found buried at New Mexico playground told investigators she intentionally suffocated him.Tiffany said that she did not want Ty to grow up with no one caring about him the same way that she had grown up with no one caring about her," Schultz said.
Caylee Marie Anthony (born August 9, 2005, in Orlando, Florida,died 2008 was a toddler who attracted international attention regarding the circumstances of her disappearance in June 2008 and subsequently discovered death. Her mother, Casey Anthony, was indicted on October 14, 2008, for her first-degree murder.

Congradulations Bridgette
Time has come and Bridgette has graduated from Tuacahn. She was beautiful and what an awesome ceremony they offered.
It was a really nice day. My sister Denise (Bridgette's mom) and her dad Randy came to the ceremony and then they are in Arizona right now. Bridgette's older brother is getting married this weekend. It was nice getting to see my sister again. I can tell Bridgette was happy as well. Denise came here from Tennessee and I am sure she will say Bridgette was worth the trip to come see. And Randy lives in Phoenix. It was nice to see them attend this special day with their daughter (my niece). My sister Joyce and her husband Ira was also there and friends from church and Bridgette's co-workers. It was pretty awesome as well when they let the fireworks off at the end of the ceremony... I am going to put some of the pictures from her graduation on here. I hope you enjoy your journey. She has come a long way and we are very proud of her accomplishments. We have a lot of pictures, they will be posted on my myspace... If you are a friend, you can view the rest when I get them loaded.
Bridgette and her best friend Lyndsey... They are cute together. Bridgette is so tall and Lindsey is so short... :)

Danny Gokey Was Sent Home :(
I am sitting here watching American Idol Extra and had to agree with what Simon told Danny. He should not have been the one sent home and he has a lot of talent. He told him that he should have been in the top two. I am not happy that Danny got sent home tonight. When Danny sang the song "You Are So Beautiful", you can feel the love he has for his wife. You can feel what he is feeling when he sings. Paula was really upset as well. But at the same time... It won't surprise me if Danny gets a deal. He is awesome and sings the kind of music I would buy. I am hoping he will put out a CD that is in the gospel line.
Last week Danny hit a bad note, but that shouldn't have been enough to get him booted. BUT, in my personal thoughts, they are all winners in their own rights.
I wasn't too impressed with parts of the show tonight though. Not sure on the whole Katy Perry thing. I guess I remember her from when she recorded under the name of Katy Hudson and she sang Christian music. I didn't like her outfit at all. Now granted she is an entertainer... But what was up with that outfit she was wearing. I was waiting for Adam Lambert to join her in song. They are both out there in someone else's planet or something.
I guess if I am going to vote next week, which I'm not sure on. I will be voting for Kris. He has a sweetness about him... Out of the two left, he is the one I would maybe buy his music. But, gee whiz, I can't believe Danny is going home. I think he is gonna do great in his future... I am hoping one day when I turn on KLOVE, I will hear his music along with Mandisa.
Danny said he said now he can finally be me and let his guard down. he was saying how ten months ago he felt he had no hope. He was standing beside his wife's casket and wanted to give up. Now feels that he has hope and that you are stronger then you really are. You have to put your guard up and felt he needed to put on this front. And now it is down and I want to freely talk about this and how if he can do it , anyone else can.
What a powerful message that is for us all. I am sure that many times we felt that we wanted to give up and he has shown that life can go on and that when we have no hope, we can go on and that there is a future and that things will get better and we can become stronger. Danny is a worship leader at his church and what a difference it makes when you know the Lord and that He is with you even in the darkest moments and times in your life.
Danny Gokey and his wife Sophia
He started a foundation called Sophia's Heart Foundation- He wants to bring hope to people. We can bring entertainment and he wants to give them hope and we can rise up from our situation. Click Here to Check It Out
Sophia's Heart Foundation was founded upon the life of an extraordinary woman whose love for children overflowed and touched the lives of countless others. Sophia was a very outgoing woman who, despite her heart condition, remained full of optimism, energy, and selflessness. During her vibrant and meaningful 27 years of life, she relayed the importance of meeting the needs of children emotionally, spiritually, and mentally.
In her passing, the mission began to develop her legacy, and to share the heart she possessed, through a living continual demonstration of her love.

The Biggest Loser Casting Call
My daughter Jessica and I went to Phoenix when she was here visiting. I took some pictures from her casting call. Now many of you know how I am about taking my picture. But I did let Jessica's mother in law Nancy take a couple of me with Dane and Blaine. If you watch the show, they are the black team. I also have a pic of me with the Phx Suns... Well Kinda. Jessica said I can't post the pictures till after the finale, and that was tonight. So here are some of mine from her casting call. I hope you enjoy them... She didn't make it for this next season. But she is determined to try till she succeeds. She wants me to join her on this next one. Not sure what my Drs will say about that. But a mom will do what a mom will do. Now , I'm not sure what that will be, but we will see, lol.
The Crowd when we got there... It wrapped all around the stadium...
As you can see there are a lot of lines here. They just kept coming. It was kinda funny though. These ladies came by and didn't know it was a casting call for the Biggest Loser and they wanted to sale some of their items. What was funny was the look on their face when I told them. They were selling Girl Scout Cookies...
JJ was in the area Jessica was when she first arrived. She had a VIP pass, so that was nice, otherwise it would have taken us all day. She got in right away... What a blessing that was...
Jessica was inside talking to some of the other possible contestants. She is the one in the black and red shirt. Her mother in law said it looked too sexy lol.
While Jessica was inside. Nancy and I decided to go venture around and take Pics. We ran into Dane and Blaine. So I took my pic with them. Although I hate pictures. They seem to add 50 pounds, ughhhhh.
Jessica was put into a group of 15 other people. Not sure that is a good idea when so many are crowded around. I told her she should have done a table dance, lol. She would have stood out. But she needed to keep her cloths on, lol.
This is Sione... Not sure on the spelling.
Nancy and I were trying to take pictures of Jessica in the building. But the blasted windows was causing our cameras to flash back at us...
Jessica is coming out of the interview. She looked so pretty. I told her she wasn't as big as most that was there. She looked small compared to some.
Jessica with Dane and Blaine after her interview. They were in a hurry to go put more change in the parking meter. So I told them if they let me take a pic of Jessica with them, I would give them a quarter, lol. They said sweet, so here is the pic of Jessica with the black team. Pretty cool guys.
I couldn't find Steve Nash, so I had to take a pic next to his poster... Not the same, but what can I do.
So this is some of the pictures that was taken on this day. It was interesting and fun. It just took me a long time to post the events of the day since Jessica said I couldn't.

My Niece is getting ready to graduate... :)
Wow, I can't believe it has been four years since Bridgette moved in here with us. She will be graduation on May 20th. Time has gone by fast... There has been good days and bad days, but most of all good days.
I do wish her the very best for her future and I am soooooooo proud of how she has done in life and school. She will be a very kind and loving adult with a bit of a cocky attitude to say the least. But what they hey... You gotta love them anyway... I know Bridgette can be anything she puts her mind too. She has the personality and the motivation. We all know she knows how to get what she wants, lol.
Her mom and dad will be coming here to see her graduate. I think that is awesome. It has been awhile since she saw her mom and I think it is a good time for her to rebuild relationships and realize that her mom loves her very much and I am sure her parents are extremely proud of her as well. I don't know what Bridgette's plans are after she graduates. She is like most teenagers, they have a whole pages of dreams and ideas for their future. And there is nothing wrong with that at all. it's better to have a dream and goal, rather then sit on the sidelines and watch your life go by. Now is the time to grab the bull by the horns and enjoy the ride.
If you read this Bridgette, I want to tell you how very proud I am of you. You have worked very hard and getting to where you are. You are beautiful and an inspiration to many. Do what makes you happy, but be happy being just who you are... Don't change because someone tells you to, change because you want to.

Jessica when she was little
When we were moving, I didn't realize how much of my Mother in Laws things we still had. She kept all of my husbands things from when he was little. I am going to make a scrapbook of the stuff she saved. But some of the pictures of my girls she saved was the best... When we moved to Illinois, a lot of our pictures was destroyed. And the other day when going through things, I found the very first picture of Jessica. Jessica was 2 days old. This was her hospital picture... So I wanted to share it with you all. I don't even think Jessica seen it.
Pictures from our move
You know something? Just because you move to a place around the corner or across town, it is still a pain in the butt. But here are the pictures I posted about that I would post when I got the time. On my next post or so. I will post updated pictures of what the place looks like now...
The Old House... It is now in front of our house... Wasn't a far move at all. But a pain anyhow...
The outside of the house...
The Three Thousand Pound Safe.. I am quite literal on the weight on this thing. It took 7 guys and a 2 1/2 ton floor jack to move it.
This is the driveway that goes to our house...
Stuff is all over the place in this picture... But atleast it is in the house now...
My sister Joyce is Wondering When it all ends,lol
