Father's Day WITHOUT a Father


Todays entry is written by my daughter Celeste. It's a Letter she wrote in Memory of her Daddy for Father's Day who was killed by a drunk driver on Mother's Day 2008

It is Father’s Day. At one time I would of looked forward to this day for weeks, spent months trying to find the perfect present for Daddy, and then trying to keep it a secret from him, which I only managed about half the time, lol. It would have been a day of all of us getting together and filled laughter and wonderful memories, now it is just a day of memories, memories of a Daddy that I will not see on earth again because of a drunk driver. So I will honor him and think of all the wonderful memories that I have of him, like trying not make him laugh when he was driving because his eyes would squinch up and he would have tears rolling down his cheeks, of the pride in his eyes whenever I would be one of the first ones to quote the Scripture for the month at school, of the only time that he ever spanked me, but made sure to roll me up in blankets so he wouldn’t hurt me. The times we would go trawling in the little boat that we had and we would find a little dam in the water and would tie up the boat and the girls and I would go crabbing while he would fish and then beat off the alligator with his pole while it tried to take his fish. The memory of the absolute pride and joy in his eyes when he saw his grandchildren for the first time. The love in his eyes when he looked at Momma and knowing that one day, the man that I married would look at me the same way. Watching him pray over us and worshiping God in church and in his everyday life and determining that the man that I would marry would love God more than me, just like Daddy. These are just some of the many memories that I have of my Daddy, they are more precious than jewels to me. I know it is kind of a cliché, but go and give your Daddy a big hug, You never know if it is going to be the last time you see him. I am so grateful that my last memory of Daddy was laughing with him, kissing him, giving him a big hug and kiss and telling him that I would see him later, especially since we had planned to go out for his birthday the next week. I love you Daddy and I will see you again one day, just hopefully not to soon!!

One Year!!!

My brother, Nathan made this sign that we put up at the crash site where Elgin was killed one year ago. My sister Natalie made the beautiful wreath. I've got the most wonderful and loving family and The World's Bestest Friends.

NOT AGAIN!!!!

Hey Ya'll
  Once again, ABC has changed the airing date of The Extreme Home Makeover T.V. Show that my girls and I helped work on in Montgomery, Alabama. It is suppose to air this Sunday, April 19th at 7:00 p.m. on ABC. They said that for any reason that it's not aired on the 19th, then it will be aired the following Sunday.  We filmed 3 segments of the show, the first was the very beginning with Ty Pennington, then a segment with Tracy and then the end with the Jordan Family in their backyard. I'm not sure exactly how much of me and my girls will be showed, but we had an awesome time getting to work with the Design Team. Hope you get to watch it.
Josephine, Jordan & Sarah
