A week of highs and lows

It has been a week of highs and lows...one I never in million years thought that I would have.

With the death of my brother's best friend Brian, we have had many questions unanswered. Why...never will be answered. There were no signs, he left no letter. The funeral was today and I still haven't quite recovered from all the crying I did. It was unbelieveable...and seeing my brother consoling his friends around him, trying to be the strong one for them and when he broke down and finally let the tears out was so difficult. I kept on thinking "We should not be doing this today". Needless to say the healing process is starting...but I still cannot help to think that this world is less full without Brian in it.

On Tuesday, we took "The Tank" (aka Brendan :)) to his first ever Twins game and had his Grandpa Bill and Grandma Ginny join us. He loved it! My mom and I walked around the whole concourse and he enjoyed looking at all the lights while riding in the baby carrier. He did great at the game and we had a great time watching him.

Tomorrow we head down to Rochester, MN to go to Oronoco's Gold Rush days Antique Show. Good times every year and I hope we find some fun stuff to decorate our house with.

Well, until I get a chance to post again...just remember that life is short, so keep your friends and family close.

Peace and Love to all!
