Everyone Needs Great Friends

This past September the world lost a beautiful Angel that was right here on earth among us, she was a shining example to everyone that knew her and made a lasting impression on everyone she that was lucky enough to have ever spent any time with her. I love her with all my heart and will miss her everyday, but sense her passing I have had many times where I feel I need a little extra strength to get through some of the challenges that come along with life, and I know I find strength in my Angel, between my dear friend that I grew up with and my loving father who has also passed, I feel as thought I am most definetley strengthened by angels, and with this strength can do anything! Life is so fragile and we never know when we will be called home to our Father in Heaven, I have learned through the years that we need to enjoy everyday we have and every moment we are blessed to spend with family and loved ones. The rest of these sweet girls in the picture are also my dear friends that I grew up with I love them all very much and would do anything for anyone of them

Christmas with the Clausse's

So for all the years I have been married to Jess I aways find it so comical how everyone calls me Mrs Clause, especially aroudn Christmas. It is so fun and makes me smile caues Cameron heard someone say it this year and thought it was pretty neat

This seat was a hit, she absolutley loved it and sat in it all morning just laughing and enjoying all the fun going on around her. She is such a precious little angel!

Having fun with Grandma and Grandpa Clausse at the cabin

What is childhood without a few bathtub shots. These two are going to be the best for friends their whole life

This is how Big Brother usually spends his time in time out. Little sister just wants to be wherever he is, it is so sweet she is so concerned about him!

I was pretty sure this owl was going to eat me, or poop on my head...

which he didn't, but I these are pics of him catching and eating a mouse even with me standing just a few feet away

I'm pretty sure my sweet little lady is wondering how in the world she got stuck with these crazies...she'll learn :)

20 Things a Mother Should Tell Her Son


1. You will set the tone for the sexual relationship, so don't take something away from her that you can't give back.



2. Play a sport. It will teach you how to win honorably, lose gracefully, respect authority, work with others, manage your time and stay out of trouble. And maybe even throw or catch.



3. Use careful aim when you pee. Somebody's got to clean that up, you know.



4. Save money when you're young because you're going to need it some day.



5. Allow me to introduce you to the dishwasher, oven, washing machine, iron, vacuum, mop and broom. Now please go use them.



6. Pray and be a spiritual leader.



7. Don't ever be a bully and don't ever start a fight, but if some idiot clocks you, please defend yourself.



8. Your knowledge and education is something that nobody can take away from you.



9. Treat women kindly. Forever is a long time to live alone and it's even longer to live with somebody who hates your guts.



10. Take pride in your appearance.



11. Be strong and tender at the same time.



12. A woman can do everything that you can do. This includes her having a successful career and you changing diapers at 3 A.M. Mutual respect is the key to a good relationship.



13. "Yes ma'am" and "yes sir" still go a long way.


14. The reason that they're called "private parts" is because they're "private". Please do not scratch them in public.




15. Peer pressure is a scary thing. Be a good leader and others will follow.



16. Bringing her flowers for no reason is always a good idea.



17. Be patriotic.



18. Potty humor isn't the only thing that's humorous.



19. Please choose your spouse wisely. My daughter-in-law will be the gatekeeper for me spending time with you and my grandchildren.



20. Remember to call your mother because I might be missing you.
