He's in a better place



After four years together, our friend Jack has moved on to a happier place. It's a place where he can run freely with other schnauzers, play with little boys, go camping, and bark to his heart's content.
With Cadence and Zack, and one more on the way, he wasn't getting the attention he needed from us, so we did the best thing we could for him and found him a new home. The family is absolutely wonderful and I know Jack's going to have a great life with them.
I have been so surprised how much crying I've done over this though! If you know me, you probably find this shocking too. When his new family came to pick him up, I had a hard time even talking because I was bawling so hard! We are sad and we miss him, but we know he's happy. Thanks Jenson Family!

I was scared that this poor dog had died! Aww. But yeah that'll be fun for him to have more doggie friends to play with.

I love the video for JJ. So cute!

Ahhh, sweet Jack. His loud, shrill bark always made me feel loved. :-) I'm glad you could find him a good home.

I don't blame you for crying, I would too! It kinda made me tear up just thinking about giving away our puppy. Good for you to realize he will be better off in a new home!

Do you even remember me?

I'm super far behind on my blog, so this should be interesting.  Will I stick with it?  Probably. . . or not.  But I hope because I have too much to be thankful for to keep it all to myself.  So, this is an update since last OCTOBER when I last posted an entry here.  No picture for now.  No time! About us as of late-ish. . .    JJ-  He's 35 and he goes to work everyday.  He has crappy knees.  But he is a gem.  He's a hard worker and a marvelous dad. He moved us into a new house that we love in April.  We are still close to our old neighborhood and get to see old friends a lot.  It's great.   April-  That's me.  I  am a headless chicken.  But not right now because I have two kids napping, one at a friend's house, and one at school.  That is why I am blogging!  I am taking classes online to earn my elementary ed degree so I can start a preschool next fall.  I'm pretty excited about that.  Pretty awesome.  I hate math and I'm not good at it.  I'm sort

Cooper is here!!!

And never mind that he is sitting up on my lap playing with a chew toy. He's just such a fun little boy that all my free time goes to playing with him (and not blogging)! Since he is nearly four months old and I haven't had a single post about him, this entire entry is dedicated to our favorite baby in the world. Cooper's Creed I will only have blowouts when it's convenient for mom, like when she's blogging. I will sleep really well through the night, but only after I do one or two fakeouts. I will keep you guessing about my eye color for at least 3 and 3/4 months. I will grow like a weed. I will be the size of a nine month old when I'm three months old. I will not barf too much. I will give a big adorable smile to anyone who looks in my direction. I may scream at the top of my lungs if I feel that someone should be looking at me, but as soon as I get some attention, I will coo and kick my feet. I will be a snuggle bug. Instead of laughing I will hold my brea
