Hi, 

I had twin boys. Our whole story can be pretty much summed up on the "In Memory" page I created when my 6 year old little boy was overdosed in the hospital. http://coreyudell.shutterfly.com/ Our son Andy is 15 and has special needs due to the genetic illness causing brain swelling. He has an amazing personality and loves to swim, dance, sing & laugh. Andy got a Make-A-Wish trip to Give Kids the World in Kissimmee, FL and Disney World. We are now officially addicted to Disney World and have been back twice so far. lol. 

 Andy and his Daddy at WDW after being kissed by Tinker Bell. Daddy only wishes he got kissed. lol. This is our first full winter in Florida and we love it here in Ocala! :)  

Our visit back to Give Kids the World. :) 

Check out the website I made in memory of Andy's twin brother. We just got certified to be foster and adoptive parents in Oct. 2011. We are praying about the child(ren) God has in store for our family. 

Melissa & Robert U.

Hi Michelle, thanks for sharing!  Are you from the Ocala area?  What type of work are you involved in?  We're hoping to set up a get together one day soon for the moms and hope that you and your son can make it :-)

Hello! I posted a few great shots of my daughter Faye's first birthday a few days ago :) My last post was last year when I was pregnant heh! 

Anyways!

Well I'm Angela. I am 22 years old, I lived here almost my whole life :) I am an artist, mostly a painter. I go thrifting & I have a vintage style.) I am a server at The Melting Pot of Ocala. My husband and I attend CF and he is a manager at Rue 21. We live in the historic district and I love taking Faye on walks around downtown and letting her play at Tuscawilla. I don't have any mom friends my age, and of course being so young it is hard to find mom friends.  But, I'd love to meet other moms! Faye turned ONE on April 30 :) Oh how time is flying!

These are my babies on Easter 2012. I will try and find one with me in it but I am seldom in front of the camera I have too much fun being behind it.. I am 29. Have lived in Ocala ( well closer to Dunnellon) for 7 years now. Have been married for 11 years.. Yep that is all of my adult life. My husband is older but younger in ways. I don't have a lot of friends but the ones I make tend to be life long. I love photography and can get pretty crafy when I put my mind too it. I am the typical artist type people think my photography is way better that I think it is. I just love to take pics. I am a complete dork at times but would not and could not be any other way. I can be as silly as my kids and have no problem sitting down to watch Disney movies. I do like to have grown up time those few and far between moments. Oh and as sad as it is or some may think it is I am in just as much love with Twilight as my 11 yr old daughter even though she is team Jacob and I am team Edward. Like I said I'm a Dork.. Anyway anything else you want to know feel free to ask
