Family Update



So it has been a while since I posted a blog, so here we go......


Tim is still working nights. It hasn't been too bad. I think we have handled it well. He received a raise so that is always a plus!


Brooklyn is truly enjoying 6th grade. She just recently performed at our Homecoming football game with the Pom squad. She did an AWESOME job!! Unfortunately, I did not take my camera so I cannot show you any pix.


Although, I do have a couple of pix from our Harvest Fest Parade. You might recognize the person in the pix. Yup, you guessed it. It is ME!! This is my 5th year I believe as Smokey the Bear. I can't begin to tell you the rush you get coming down the street on the front of a fire engine hearing those little kids screaming your name. Well, Smokey's name. LOL


My bestest friend in the whole wide world is getting married on October 11, 2008. Her soon to be husband is a great guy. He is very good to her and she deserves it!! She has two sweet little boys that I love with all my heart. Julie and I have been friends for about 7 years and she has a wonderful family that is very welcoming. They pretty much adopted me, whether they wanted to or not, lol, but I inherited the sister I always wanted and three brothers. These folks are the type that you can count on to always have your back if you need them!! I love them!!! Julie picked out her dress Sunday and the bridesmaids picked out their dresses also. Mine had to be ordered, but that's okay, I can't wait to put it on again!! Julie looked absolutely beautiful in her dress!! I was tearing up as soon as she came out. She is going to make a gorgeous bride!!! We can't wait.


Oh, lastly, we have made a family decision to adopt two baby kittens from the APL. We are so excited to go pick them out this weekend. We will not be bringing them home as October is going to be a very busy month and I don't want to bring them into our home and then leave them very much at first. So we are going this weekend to look at the new kittens and put our name on the two sisters that we will adopt the end of October. We are all very excited!!!


I think that is about all of the updates I have for now. I will keep you posted should anything new come about.

Reunited!!



This weekend Tim, Brooklyn and I were able to visit with our old family member, Tater Tot!!! We gave Tate to a very loving family approximately 2 years ago and I have missed her more than words can say. She was a great dog! Anyway, she is much happier where she is now. There is always someone home to keep her company and she has 4 beautiful girls to play with. We LOVE you Tater Tot and can't wait to see you again!!
