Sad...

So shortly after i had updated my blog about the goat I got a phone call from my dad.. Something was wrong with the goat. She was bloated from eating to many weeds. My dad tried everything he could. She died. I feel horrible. I had called the guy whom we got her from and he said " Well she will either live or die.. nothing i can do." He was a jerk! Well i got a call from my dad.. the goat had died.. I felt so bad!I was then thinking about every gift I have gotten for my dad... fish for his aquarium.. they all have died! So i think i am done getting live things for birthdays or fathers day. And to top it all off.. it is my Aunt Cathy's birthday today. I love her and miss her so much its unbelievable! She meant the world to me! I was truly blessed to have her apart of my life!

The Goat!

So Father's Day was about a month ago right.. well all during the Month of May I was trying so hard to think of what I should get my dad! When finally i remembered how much my Dad has always wanted a goat! So Matt and I started to look on awesome KSL. We came across a guy that sells goats. We went to go check out the baby goats! And we finally picked one out! She wasn't ready to go for another couple weeks. The guy let us take the goat home for a couple hours just to show my dad his gift! My dad had the biggest grin on his face! He loved her!

So we finally got to bring the adorable goat home! She loves to eat just the little flowers off all the weeds. She still does not have a name picked out! But my DAD loves her!

My Aunt Cathy

Two years ago to best friend passed away. My Aunt Cathy. She was a wonderful woman. She was sick for many many years and not once did I hear her complain. She loved everyone. She loved animals so much. She Loved to cook, and that is where I got my passion for cooking, from my Aunt Cathy. She was always a happy person. Nice to everyone. My fondest memories of My Aunt Cathy are going out to Colorado and helping her with her catering business and working at Gold Tooth Annies. ( People would drive miles just to go eat the yummy home cooking.) I loved to be on her farm. There were horses, dogs, chickens, and cats. She loved to spoil us nieces and nephews. Her and I always wrote back and forth from Colorado and Utah. She would send me stamps just so she would get a letter back. She was very talented. She would paint the most beautiful paintings. She decorated Gold Tooth Annies with them. I wish I had at least one. She spent her last Christmas at our house. I remember just looking at her Christmas mornings with tears of joy streaming down her face. I asked what was wrong and she replied, "I have never seen kids open presents on Christmas morning. It is just wonderful!" She had given all of the nieces a piece of her jewelry. I received the most beautiful pearls from China and I wear they often. My Aunt Cathy wasn't here for my wedding but I could feel her close by every second of that beautiful day! I love my Aunt Cathy so much! I miss her so much! I cannot wait to see her again!
