I'm Back!

So. . . .Wow. . .It has been an extremely long time since I have posted. I am feeling it again, now being once again in a schedule. A whole bunch has happened and you'll get tid-bits along the way.

We went raspberry picking a couple of weeks ago! I made a yummy pie from them. I actually eat a little pie with my whipped topping.

There was a wonderful old truck we stopped at to get a photo. . .This is the best after a day of picking. Gosh, I should have taken a photo of the big daddy grasshopper we caught. Although, now thinking of it, he is probably still in the travel coffee cup in my car!

I wanted to start out my new post with our doggie Vega, but thought after months of not posting that would be too sad of a start. But, I still had to get her up here as a little honor to our dog. Vega Sky had to be put to sleep because of a brain tumor. It was a very traumatic experience, starting off with a seizure, being told she had bloat and would die that night, to her getting better. Unfortunately, after many, many test and feeling better for days she started having neurological problems. I'll stop there. SHe was beyond an amazing dog!!! Aidan had her collar hanging in his room and a day doesn't pass that we don't talk about her. SO now that I've gotten myself crying I will end. Just look at her cuddling with Aidan! The look in her face was her personality, she was a huge gentle and goofy (she lived with us!) dog.

Oh Niki I am so sorry. It really is losing a member of the family. Hope to see you soon.
