Friends are Awesome!

This past weekend was awesome! Me and the kids went up to mom and dad's to see everyone and go to my cousin's wedding shower. On saturday night me and the kids went down to Bremen to see everyone. It is amazing how much everyone has grown and even though we dont live there anymore it is amazing how awesome it is for us to keep in touch! We had a great time with our friends (and Chrissy yeah the drinks were so good but they do contain alcohol and we can get drunk from those..but I cannot wait to get the ones I ordered...I cant wait till I can spend summer nights sitting on my patio enjoying the evenings...) I think it is so cool that even with all the "crap" of the last 2 years that my friends have remained my friends. I gotta admit I love Facebook, what an awesome way to connect and keep in touch! I dont think a day has gone by that I havent gotten the chance to connect with someone from my past whether it be youth group, 4H, or someone I went to school with. I admit the last few years I have been through alot of crap (for lack of a better word) but I am finally seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. I have met an awesome man who loves me and loves my kids and my kids think the world of him. This past weekend when I went to leave to go up north my van broke down and so he let me, so I wouldnt ruin any of my plans use his Jeep Cherokee which was so nice of him. Its so nice to have someone to tell good morning to when you wake up and good night to when you go to sleep each night and I am learning with this that its not about sex its about a foundation. Its about spending time together and laughing and sharing and communicating together. My marriage wasnt like that, it was based on sex, because certain people think that you have to have sex to show love and that thank goodness I am finding out is so not the case. Sex is a small part of the relationship but you dont have to have it. Too many people are into the lets meet and jump into bed attitude but in my opinion that ruins alot of things. Since I have met Rey he has shown me how a woman is supposed to be treated which is so awesome and hes more interested in knowing me and the kids than jumping down my pants so to speak. I have to admit I have never known a guy like this which has been so awesome! And that he adores my kiddos is a big plus as well. I feel so fulfilled, I have my friends and family that love me and Rey in my life, an awesome job, and my faith which continues to sustain me.
