The newest member of our little family. We will have to take a family photo one of these days for you...but until then you will just have to get by with her cute little face :) We rescued her a few weeks ago from the shelter. Her and her brothers and sisters were neglected and a little abused. I walked in and held her...and I was done. I knew she was supposed to be ours. Wes agreed...so we got her that day. I was a little hesitant to share with you all because she has been battling sickness. First her spay got infected, then she had kennel cough(or so we thought)...but it really turned out to be pneumonia. Needless to say, we there was a dark period and we were scared for her life. The vet didn't know if she would make it or not. So we prayed, grandpa anointed her head with sacred oil, we nursed her food and water, and we loved her as much as our hearts could and then some more. She is a fighter :) and the outcome is looking a lot better. She just turned 4 months today. So we are very excited that she is still with us :) We are hoping for many more posts of her to come.
Mom's 50th birthday was yesterday. That was really exciting for everyone. We had a nice quiet get together yesterday and a masquerade party today. What a fun time we all had. Music, dancing, food, cupcakes, laughter, and much more. So glad that I have a mother like I do. She is one of a kind and I love her sooo very much. Much thanks to everyone who was a part of it and who helped make the party such a success. Mom really enjoyed herself and I did too.
Update on me...working, working, working...which is a good thing. But doing all of that and cleaning, and watching after the dog...man am I tired. I called mom the other day and told her that I didn't know how she did it with two kids, taking care of the house, running errands, and trying to sleep some....she(and all the moms out there)...yall are my heroes. :) Wes is super awesome though...he takes care of Lady so well too. He is a trooper!!! We both are tired; however, we are still finding time for one another...which is awesome. Granny says that if we can pass this test of taking care of a puppy (a sick one none the less) and still live our lives...AND not get angry at each other, then we will be alright in life :) Oh my Granny...she has so much wisdom! Until next time...admire the beautiful fall trees....God sure is a master painter when it comes to the fall colors...I love it!
