Smiles all around.....

From April 3-10 Jason and I were at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando Florida. We LOVED it and had soooooooo much fun. Anyways, I don't have time right now to post all of the details. However I did want to share these pics with you. You can clearly see just how happy we were in those moments. We only wanted pics with the classic characters. We just weren't interested in all the new characters. In fact a couple of times I had to ask some parents who some characters were. Oh the life without kids :) Anyways, it was definitely worth the money to have 8 days together, especially with all that's been going on.

Long time gone.....

Man there are a lot of you out there who actually read this thing. It's amazing to me how many of you ask me when I'm going to update this. The truth is I've been wanting to give it up. I've been wanting to just delete it. I'm not sure why though. However I just don't bother deleting it because something just doesn't seem right about that to me.

There's been way too much going on for me to rant about it here. I can say this about it all though..... although I see God's hand all over everything that's crappy right now I'm still not okay with it. I'm having a hard time processing where I'm at right now because I've never been here. This is all new territory for me and my brain and I'm not exactly sure what to do with it all just like those of you who are closest to me right now who don't know what to do with me. My poor, patient husband said to me last night during one of my new found anxiety attacks (loving those) that he wishes he could just tell me to suck it up but realizes that this is so real to me right now that that would do more damage than good. Ha ha ha shows how far we've come in 5 years because back then he would have just said it.

Anyways, my heart has been heavier than it ever has over the past 5 weeks. Today is the (although I hate this saying) straw that breaks the camel's back. Tomorrow my mom will be putting Bob (our dog that we've had for about 15 years) to sleep. Although it's the last thing that my mom, sister and I want we realize it's necessary. The poor guy is just not doing so hot right now and hasn't really been doing well for a few months now. However we kept hanging on. We kept saying that we'd leave him be until we thought he was suffering and now he seems to be at that point. My heart is broken and I'm sure this is heightened because of other things from these past few weeks that I haven't dealt with, but it still sucks.

So in honour of Bob Putty (this is what I wanted to call him but I got overruled) Wilson here's a few pics of him. I've got loads more but don't have a scanner so these will have to do.
