Weekend gift - Day one at Oak Meadow Ranch

Image
 My boss gifted me a weekend with T and a friend.  Well it's been hard, everyone is busy.  So I split it into two things... day one.. Oak Meadow Ranch with just me and T because I just couldn't ask Balfour to pay for another person... it's pricey!! Everyone was introduced again, beautiful music was played... we went to church service outside and while it was chilly.. it was the best service ever - surrounded by animals and animal sounds the whole time! Jesse even attended! T looooved Jesse! Then before our tour, we ran into the Liu's who came and stayed the night before. I was SO thankful that Michele and Lauren chose to do this!! We had cotton candy drinks... SO FUN!  T MAY have had two.. bad parenting, I know. And they came out and sang to him for his bday -it was hilarious!   I think this is going well... First up Baby Yoda!! Prince Harry was next! Prince Charles and his baby! WE LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE LEMURS!! Zeus came out to greet T and of course... Jesse T...

Goodbye to Uncle Johnny

Image
A 6am call is never "normal" and I knew something was wrong. My poor mama had to call and tell me that her brother, the patriarch of our family... my Uncle John was dying. Brain bleed. 911. Ambulance. Hospital. Aunt Jeanne. Can't go visit. Covid. Ventilator. I heard all of those words. None of them were sinking in. Too surreal. He was fine. Too heartbreaking, my Aunt just lost her sister TOO OVERWHELMING. I CAN'T GO BE WITH MY FAMILY. Then the call came that he was off of life support, and he died. My Uncle John, big burly Uncle Johnny... was gone. My Aunt Jeanne posted on Facebook. So I posted... then Auntie T... And then mom posted... and our hearts broke.  Just broke.   Every time we talk  - we just can't make sense of it. I know in time.. it will sink in.  He will not be there at the airport when I get home next trip. He won't be at Christmas or at the table eating sauce.  He's gone. BUT I WILL REMEMBER. I will tell the stories and I will keep him ali...

Arrivederci Italia!

Image
This week I made the mistake of diving into the costs of Upper school at TCA. I say mistake, because it's overwhelming. I'm sure high school was expensive for my parents too.. but my gosh. TCA is A LOT before you even factor in the "extra expenses". I have such grandiose plans as 4 more trips with Tristan before he graduates.  But, alas, I cannot do it.  He's headed on Spring Break with the Rhodes family and I'm SO grateful but also so jealous that I don't get this trip with him. I want more time.  I want to go back. I miss you Tristan. I miss you thinking I was fun, and cool and wanting me around. I miss you talking to me, sitting and having more than 7 minutes of time together at the dinner table. I miss the stories, I miss helping you study (not going to lie, evenings "off" are kind of nice) but I love watching you fly. So while i'm sad that I probably won't be going to Italy anytime soon... or ever... I am grateful that you are findin...
