My dearest loving husband, Tommy,


Today is another day without you.....I spend my time with the kids and friends......I know you see us when we laugh but inside I am crying......I try so hard to be strong for the kids....I love them so much but you know how I am about our kids.....

Erik's Hike

Erik is going on another hike today....I will worry as always......He so enjoys hiking this area.....In time he will know this entire area.....

My dear loving husband, Tommy,


Today it is suppose to rain/snow.....The kids are wanting snow....It is a week until Christmas....Time is flying by here.....

Erik's Hike

No matter how fast it goes by....It seems like a lifetime without you....It will be 3 months soon and that is unreal...I know it will never get any easier.... the pain is still so great....

I often speak your name....asking you for guidance with every situation that comes about.....You always find a way to tell me what you think....Our connection is so strong that nothing will ever break it.....

You were the best thing that came into my life...You showed me how to stand up for myself and to see the people who do not really care but only wants to start trouble...I am so thankful to have had you in my life....You will always be in my life.....You are my love forever....

A view Erik captured

Erik's hike went good...He called me because he had decided not to go to the original place he told me....He went to a place called the American Gulch....The pictures are so beautiful....I will post them here for you to see....

Another view

Shae is tickled to death school is out....She is just like you.....She is a very smart girl and she loves you dearly.....She opened one of her present because yesterday when Erik was going on his hike he knew I got him one of those big back packs he always wanted for hiking and it had to be opened so I had to let her open up one....She picked the lipstick by feeling of it....Praying it would be black....Well it was so now she wears her black eye shadow and black lipstick....totally gothic......

Wild horses....Beautiful

Well my love just wanted to tell you everything....We love you forever....


Your loving wife and kids,
Melinda, Shaelee, & Erik
