Happy 3rd Birthday, Lily Grace!

We thank God for our Lily Grace every day - can't imagine what life would be like without her smiles, giggles, temper tantrums, sweet singing, book reading, question asking, and sassy "testing" responses (from time to time :) Lover of all things furry, skirts, shoes, and babies....she is a happy, energetic, and healthy 3 year old! Happy Birthday to YOU!!!

May You Rest In Peace, Crazy Jake

I don't like that this is the first post, in a long time. We have to say goodbye to Jake today, due to bone cancer. Jake has brought us (and Nana Cheryl) many laughs - and lots of frustration, from the first day we brought him home 8 years ago!!! There was rarely a dull moment with him - such an active, fun loving, vocal boy. We will miss your "smiles" and "talking" to us - and I greatly miss my morning running buddy, and bedside security blanket. We love you, Jakey (as Lily calls him) and we know you will be running around, being good-old crazy you, in heaven!

Time With Our Great Grandma's....

....is always treasured :)
