Well, I would like to start by saying that we had a loss in the Reese Family over the weekend. Our dear little hamster Chewbacca (Chewy) Ricky Bobby Reese passed away. We are all very saddened by the loss and plan to get another little hamster next weekend when Emily returns. She has decided to name him Chewy II after her first little hamster. Chewy Ricky Bobby had a long life of two years and was a cute little friend that we all grew to love a great deal. It was a heartbreaking Friday night to see Emily cry and I must say a special THANK YOU to Helen for talking to Emily when we were all so upset. We had a burial service out at Micky and Jill’s and he was laid to rest next to Morgan (their dog). The ceremony was officiated via cell phone by Uncle E, whom we would also like to thank as well as Grandma and Granddaddy for allowing him to be buried at such a beautiful place. I know that it meant a great deal to all of us that you were all there for Emily and we appreciate you so much.
The yard sale was a success. We still have a lot of items from the sale including baby clothes, so if you know anyone that may like to come look, let me know. We are preparing the house to be put on the market and there is a lot still to be done. We will be cleaning up all the flowerbeds and pressure washing the house in the next few weeks as well as packing up all items that are not used frequently. Who knows, we may even have to have another yard sale once we find all the hidden treasures in there.
Brylee Taite has learned to pat-a-cake and gives high fives. She is learning how to blow kisses now, but she has not gotten very far with that one. She thinks it is hilarious when you blow kisses to her though. She is successfully driving Emily nuts these days. She is loud and interrupts her when she is talking or watching TV. I have tried to explain to Emily that this is something she will have to get used to because that is something sisters do. I told her that Lindy still gets on my nerves! J But we all know she would do anything for her if it came down to it.
Emily made quiet a bit of $$ from the yard sale by selling her old toys and was able to buy a new Digimon Nintendo DS game. Unfortunately she left her DS at home and had to wait to play it. I can’t wait to hear if she liked it or not. I have lots of pictures to upload, but when I get home and get settled I am pooped! But I will try to make myself add more soon. In the meantime keep us in your prayers as we continue our house hunt.
And if you know anyone that may be interested a new home, send them our way!

And Emily thought Anna Claire was bad that one day, at least Anna Claire went home. LOL
Sibling will get on one anothers nerves as long as they live. I think it is a gene put in every brother and sister alive.
Tell her that older siblings can get on younger sibling's nerves as well. My favorite older brother still picks on me and I'm almost 30!!
