Spunkachewy


I wanted to start by letting you all know how Tiffany was doing. She has such a strong faith and seems to be doing as well as can be expected. She is surrounded by her family and friends and is truly blessed to have so many people there for her during her time of need. The service was the best I have ever been to by far, the preacher explained how Matthew was a precious gift sent from Heaven above. He went on to say that though we may have many questions as to the whys of a situation like this, but we should all feel blessed that we had the opportunity to have this precious gift no matter how short the time was. Because when God gives us a precious gift like a child, we are not promised a certain amount of time with that gift, but we should cherish it, make memories, and feel joyful for the time that we were able to share with such a wonderful blessing. I was very moved by the service as so many others were. It really makes you realize how short life is and how we should cherish each moment we have and all those that we are able to share it with. Please continue to pray for Tiffany and her family because I know I feel very blessed to have someone like her in my life and I am so thankful to know that I have a friend with such a wonderful faith around me.



We got Emily this weekend and as promised we went to Pet Smart to pick out a new hamster. Well Spunkachewy (aka Spunk) jumped right out towards Emily so we had to bring him home. She knew right away that he was the one! This little guy is nothing like Chewy Ricky Bobby, he is full of energy and is rarin' and ready to go. He is up all night and made himself right at home in the cage when he got here. Emily is so happy with him.


Now for the house update :(


We were putting the house on the market last Friday, but earlier in the week got the news of the Nissan buyout. Well, Brian went in to work and they were doing some layoffs and cutting back to one shift for the time being, as most of you know his company makes the frames for some of the Nissan vehicles. He is fine and will be heading to days on Monday, but the more we talked about it we decided now was probably not the best time to do anything. So we will plan to sit tight for a little while longer and see how things pan out.

AND NOW FOR SOME BIG NEWS...

LINDY AND GREGG ARE HAVING A BABY! That's right Emily and Brylee Taite will be getting a new little cousin in about 9 months!! We are all very excited. Lindy went to the Dr. today for confirmation and sure enough she is Prego. I am even more excited because she will be seeing Dr. Moore which is the Dr. that delivered Brylee Taite Reese!! She goes back to the Dr. in September so stay tuned for more updates. And please keep them in your thoughts and prayers as they embark on this wonderful journey together.
