Heidi did go to be with the Lord on February 18. My mom and I did go to the funeral today, there was a lot of friends and family there, it was a very nice service, and a huge lunch afterwards. The song that is first on my music was the song that they played today, before they started the service, it was a real tear jerker. I had a huge lump in my throat listening to it, but as I was listening to it, I just felt like my dad was there with me, like he was letting me know again that he was okay!! And also that Heidi was going to be okay. thank you to everyone who has prayed for that family, and please continue to pray for the families. I just learned today that Heidi's husband Brett lost his mom a year ago, lost his dad just a month ago, and has no job, just lost his wife, and has a new baby. So he does need prayers, that the Lord will help him with starting a new life.

Fun with the Gapinski's!!

We had a great couple of days at the Great Wolf Lodge with Jessica, Doug, Blase & baby Harrison! Thank you Amy (Matt's girlfriend) for getting us a room for cheap! My kids had a blast, it was a surprise for them, they thought we were just going to Jessica's, but I surprised them and went to the GWL! They were so excited, I would show some pictures but, something was wrong with my camera, so I did not get to take any!! I'm hopin Jess will have some to post!!! Hope everyone has a great week!!! Thank you Doug & Jess for showing us Cook's how to have some fun!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESSICA JEANNE!!!!!

Happy Birthday sweet friend! I can't believe that you and I became the best of friends and our birthday's are only one day apart, how cool is that??!! 33 you're right, it used to seem so old, but I still feel like a young whippersnapper!! Although right now my legs hurt, cuz we went bowling on Saturday night, and I guess I'm not so used (I should say my legs are not used to getting that much exercise)!! I just want you to know Jess that I love ya so much, you have been like a sister to me, you know how to cheer me up(I think I wrote this on your comment blog) when I'm blue, I always know that if I need a good laugh I can call you for one. I think the best days were in elementary school when we lived next to each other on Oak Street, I just remembered one time when we went for ice cream in your dad's old car, I think it was brown and only two doors, and we were going to Mooney's and your dad was chewing, and he spit out the window, and some of it came back on me, back then it wasn't that funny, but right now I'm thinkin that was hilarious, cuz I can just imagined what my face looked like, and you and Lish were probably laughing and I was probably so mad!! Anyway, you are very special to me and my family, I mean I must love ya because I named my Lizzie after you, she even picked up your old thumbsucking habit!! I hope you have the best 33rd birthday ever!!! I can't imagine you wouldn't knowing you have a great friend like me!!
