Birthday update...

I guess it's been a while since I have posted. I know that sometimes I'm a bad blogger... The truth is it just seems like everything has been non-stop lately!

June has been crazy busy for us. I'm so glad that it is almost over.

I did promise details about my 40th Birthday party... I'm so lucky to have a great husband and wonderful friends.

They had a surprise party for me that they totally out did themselves on. My mom and I spent the day at the spa.. and I came home to about 35 people yelling surprise!

All my girlfriends went in and bought me a Tiffany Charm Bracelet with charms.. I also received another charm and gift certificates. That was so sweet!!! I love it so much!!!

Marty bought me a new wedding band and I received numerous other thoughtful gifts from Friends and Family.

Despite everything that has been so hard on me these last 5 months. I am doing pretty well.

Fathers Day was a pretty hard day. But I made it through... I still feel empty more then not and I feel alone and angry.

Boomer is doing very well with out Brandi. He still misses her, as we all do. But he is adjusting. He is starting to get a long better with the puppies. Josie is such a little sassy girl that I can't help but smile when she does things!
Turbo is a little bit more puppy then I thought he was... Lucky he's just so darn cute, I think that's what helped him make the cut in the first place.

I will post some updated pictures of the kids next time. I still don't think Boomer will be ready to have his picture taking with them but I will try!

I sure do miss my girl, but these little puppies help ease that pain a little bit each day.

RIP B-dog...

Well as many of you already know Brandi had stage 5 cancer and her organs were already starting to shut down...

We chose to do the best thing for her and put her to rest last Thursday. WOW I can't even put into words how much Marty and I will miss her.

We both took this very hard, I mean to us, she was our first born... Boomer misses her also... We were/are all so lost...

So, what do you think we did to try and make it feel a little less lonely?

Was this you guess???

Meet the newest members of our family Josie and Turbo...
Yes, we are CRAZY!!! But more then that we are both very stubborn... He wanted a boy and I wasn't leaving without a girl...
Boomer is adjusting... He likes being top dog with these little guys... We still give him lots of special attention.
I still need to blog about my b-day. I will try to post a few pictures with that update tomorrow.
TTFN!

Happy Birthday to my peep Staci....

Happy birthday Staci... Lots of things have gone on that I want to share but today I feel very SAD...

Marty and My wonderful friends had a 40Th Birthday Surprise Party for me on Saturday. What a day! I will share the story and pictures later...

Today Marty and I found out that Brandi - our dog ( Oldest Child) has cancer... I really can't even put into words the devastation that I feel right now. Until tomorrow we don't know if we will have her 1 more day or 1 more month...

I feel Empty, Angry and Sad!

I promise to post about the party and my Birthday surprises later....
