Rocket Launching with my boys!

5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

Look at my Belle along for the blast off

I cannot believe how BIG he is getting

All the tools necessary for a good time!

Jay and Turtle went to the hobby store today to build model rockets. Once they got home Turtle helped build his but when it came time for Daddy's he wasn't interested...
Somehow I got wrangled into going a mile into the desert to assist with the detonation! Turtle, Belle, Jay and I all had a really great time! We're hoping tomorrow the wind will die down a bit and we can go again...maybe a better location! ; )

Thanks Jay for doing things like this with Turtle...someday he'll remember when and tell his kids about this! You really are an amazing husband and father!

Another Day In The Beller Family

I was looking at another blog today and was inspired to share more about me...Today has been a rough day. Work was the usual, not too bad considering. However, my home life sometimes leaves a lot to be desired. My mother in law is going through a divorce after being married for 31 years. I can't imagine how hard it is...on the same hand, I can't imagine not moving forward. I love her to bits but sometimes I can't relate to someone who has no drive to move her life in a positive direction.
My Uncle's Dad (who is basically a Grandpa to me) is having a major heart surgery tomorrow...I'm really worried about him and his wife. I know this is hard on everyone in the family...especially my Uncle.
I just got a call from my mother in law that a friend of the family killed themself last night...I have to ask myself, is it ever that bad?
Jay and I have personally known MANY people that have committed suicide...it's so hard for everyone around!
Sorry to be such a bummer...tis my life these days! :(
