Mommy Memories

I can't believe it's already been 2 years since Mom passed away. Some days it still feels like it was yesterday and then others, when you think of what all the Seippel's have been up to, it seems like forever.

Just look at all of these milestones...
Angie and Britt had a 2nd kid
Tres moved to London
Mark and I sold our house in Winston
Mark and I bought another house in Arizona and moved across the country
I was diagnosed with breast cancer
Ginni and Baker moved to Winston
Ginni and Baker had a 2nd kid
Tres got his Masters
Dad started dating
Tres moved back home
Cris graduated from UNC
I was cured of breast cancer
Cris got his first job and moved to Charlotte
Tres got a job and moved to DC
Ginni and Baker are about to buy a house in Winston
Not to mention all the other things I forgot...

And even though we're getting on with our lives like we're supposed to, we each still cherish those wonderful memories we have of Mom. So here's to the best Mom EVER. I hope one day I'll be as awesome as you were. I hope you enjoy a few of my favorite pictures of mom.

And, Mom, if I don't tell you often enough, thanks again for saving my life. I love you and miss you.

Nanny & Ryley - Christmas 2010
This was the first time mom got to see Ryley since she had been admitted to the hospital and I'm pretty sure they were equally thrilled to see each other!
Our last Christmas with Mom, unfortunately it was in the hospital but we all snuck in there at once.
