Hello to you!

My oh my, it's been close to a year since my last post! I've been ever so busy between mom life, wifey duties, working & attempting to play in my craft room! A lot has changed over the past year! I was promoted at work, promoted at home (mommy of the year, just kidding), celebrated Mikey's second birthday, took our annual weekend trip to Bisbee, AZ & Adam & I enjoyed a night stay @ Starr Pass Resort celebrating our five year wedding anniversary!

I recently had the difficult choice of putting my fur baby Boobers down as old age had taken a toll on him. I suspect he likely had a thyroid issue as he rapidly lost weight over a six month period. He then looked at me this past Sunday & I could tell that his little soul was not content nor comfortable. A wonderful traveling vet was recommended which I decided suited our needs rather than removing Boo from his comfort zone & home. While I know this was the best decision it has been so difficult coping with the loss of my fur baby of almost 16 years.

Well, it's time for me to hit the hay as I'm ever so tired from being up at a very early time thanks to Mikey!

Our Trip Home~

Adam, Michael & I took a trip home to visit family in early December. We had such a wonderful time & found it difficult saying goodbye! We traveled to Lincoln City & stayed in an amazingly beautiful beach house.

Thank God for children's Benadryl!

We visited daddy @ work. Here's Michael riding his firetruck in the parking garage

I think he was attempting to say no more pics!

Adam recently switched from Engine 1 to Ladder 1
