Generation 2 - Legacy Challenge
Ugh! I'm doing the photo album, little Adam is sleeping right now and I wanted to go through the family album and pictures. Leo took this picture of me when I started having labor pains. My water broke, and they hurt really bad. I don't think Ill ever, or ever have, experienced pain like this before. |
My first day home from the hospital after giving birth to my first son, Adam. Isn't he a doll? And no more maternity clothes for me. Thank - God. |
Stacey had gotten in the way when we had this one taken. We tried to take it of Adam on his first birthday. Adam had it in him to have a big family, ever since he was young. He even talked my wife and I into having another child, just so he could have a new brother or sister. Well, this was him when he turned into his terrible two's. |
And this is Adam's little sister Emily after I had just gotten home from the hospital. No more embarrassing labor pains pictures - I yelled at Leo about the last one. And theres Grandpa Chris We also added on a new room for Adam, and put Emily's new crib in our room. Grandpa and Grandma are getting really sick, they should pass any day now. They refuse to go to the doctors. |
We didn't know it at the time, but because Chris had gotten so far in his job, and fulfilled a lot of what he wanted in life, his work promoted him a really nice gravestone. But this is Grandma Marisa and Grandpa Chris' graves. They were buried in a corner of our lot, soon when we have enough money were going to make our own graveyard. |
This is Adam now at 16. We missed a lot of his growing up years because the family was just getting so full, dealing with the deaths of grandma and grandpa, everything was just getting yard. And infront of him is his best friend Kyle. I think little Emily has a crush on him. |
This is Emily as a kid. I took this the same day I took Adam's, just because we had the camera out. She loves to play darts with her dad. In some ways I think she takes after him. That and her uncle Joshua.. I catch her looking through the telescope all the time. She even claims she saw Grandpa Chris' ghost. I don't know if I believe her. |
Emily has grown into the most beautiful teenager I have ever seen. Of course, I'm sure all parents say that. I took this after she'd blown out her candles on her 15th birthday. Now she was on a mission. To capture Kyle Broke's heart. |
The house was empty, and the two children were at school. I was at work. Its told that if you plead with the grim reaper, he will save your loved ones lives. I always thought that was an urban legend, but when I returned home, there was a huge satellite in our lawn, and this picture was on the doorstep. I don't know who took it, and I've kept it hidden for a long time. It had landed on Stacey. I think a neighbor took this. It was truly upsetting for me. |
A mystery.. Grandma Marisa's grave on the left, and my wife Stacey's grave on the left, but Grandpa Chris' grave is missing. Emily says she had seen Marisa's ghost go into the grave, and then it just went missing, but no one knows for sure. She loves her ghost stories. To much time at work in the Medical Career I think. |
This is Lauren. She came and delivered pizza's one day to the house, and Adam just fell in love with her from day 1. My boy, to the right, coming home from work in his medical suit. He just loves his job. He had Lauren stay the night one night after they had gotten to know each other. |
And they fell in love. This is Lauren and Adam - continuing the family tradition of getting married at night, at the same place. Why, grandma and grandpa would be so happy seeing their grand children grow up. Unfortunately, Adam had gotten an emergency phone call and had to leave for work. Lauren had to go on her honeymoon by herself. |
Well, now that Adam and Lauren are starting their own lives together, Emily is moved out, I think its time for me to hand over the album to them now. I'm getting too old for this stuff.
On to.. Generation 3
