As Summer 2019 quickly comes to an end I thought I would take a minute to reflect on how amazing it was.  At first,time was moving slowly but before I knew it, Summer was coming to an end. This Summer consisted of many fun adventures to familiar places. We started of with a trip to the one our favorite vacation spots... MYRTLE BEACH, SC. This was my dad and I's sixth trip to Myrtle Beach and it is something I look forward to in the summer.   When we get ready to leave on any trip, we like to post about how we're out looking for a store instead of posting exactly where we're going. When it comes time to leave for Myrtle Beach our go to phrase is "Out looking for Walmart."  After two days in the car, we ended up at Walmart. Following a quick trip to Walmart to stock up on food and drinks for the week, finally made it to our hotel. We were able to spend 8 amazing days sleeping in, swimming, and having fun.  While in Myrtle Beach, we visi...

1) My universe revolves around me. To some this may sound self-centered but it's the truth and I'm not going to apologize for it .  2) Blood does not mean family and family does not mean blood. Some of my closest friends I consider family.  Also, just because we share DNA does not mean we are family.  3) Some people are meant to be in your life and some are not. No matter how much you try or how much you want someone to be in and apart of your life it may not work out. It can be difficult to understand but meant to be.  4) God has a plan for you. 5) LEGGINGS ARE PANTS. 6) Success can be measured by many things. Success can be measured by money, job, family, house, or many other things in life. To be successful, you need to find what success means to you. 7) Wealth is not measured by how much money you have. This goes along with success. Wealth can be defined by different things. You need to find which definition works for you. ...

Today I am thankful for last night.  We had 4 of my cousins over for a sleepover.  We had a blast making homemade pizza.  And making silly faces. I'd say that I have successfully kept my title of "Best Cousin Ever" Award.  And I guess my dad can have the "Best Uncle Ever" Award.  The sleepover ended this morning with a pancake eating contest.  Many memories were made that I hope the kids will remember forever.  

Today I am thankful for all the pictures I have ever taken or received from others.  Summer of 2010- Grandpa Ehrman and me Pictures can be used to tell a story. Myrtle Beach- Summer 2011 Myrtle Beach 2011 They can remind you of good times. Grandma and Grandpa Ehrman at a family reunion. Largest Family Picture Summer 2009 They can remind you of not so good times.  Family vacation to a cabin in the mountains was one of the worst trips ever.  They are a reminder of how far you have come and how much you have grown.  High School Graduation 2011 Me, Matt, Dad, Paul, Sam

Today I am thankful for the time I get to spend with my cousins.  Today I got to babysit my two youngest cousins and we had a blast together. We ran errands then went out to lunch together (along with my dad).  The short amount of time that we were together today made me realize that I don't spend enough time with any of my cousin, especially the younger ones. There are so many of us and we're all spread out that it makes it difficult to, but I need to try harder.  Spending time with them today also brought back some memories from when I was younger. Us older cousins used to spend what seemed like every summer together at my grandparents.  I'm lucky enough to have those memories.  One day, I hope I'm just as lucky to be able to look back and have amazing memories with the younger cousins as I do with the ones my age.
