Sometimes life is a roller coaster!



Up and Down.....that has been the mood at our house for the last week or two.  We returned on a great high from our awesome Spring break trip, but were quickly met with a sad reality.  Our dog had become more sick while we were gone. After two weeks of him not eating or walking, trying some different medications, and lots of consultations with our vet we decided on Saturday to have him put to sleep.  It was such a sad morning...... but get ready, here comes the roller coaster.  Chloe competed in a regional math competition that morning and earned FIRST PLACE!!!!  She will compete at the state competition on May 5.  After math competition in Carl Junction, we drove to Farmington, Ar. for a softball tournament...........Saturday our team was 3-0.  But remember...........this is a roller coaster, Sunday we lost two heart breakers in a row! 

This life does have days, weeks, and months that seem like an ongoing roller coaster.  Thankfully when we get off the roller coaster and look back at what we have done, it is usually a good feeling.  And, more often than not, we would do it again!

  1. I remember the day you brought that little baby home. Take comfort in knowing that you gave Pretzel a great life that he wouldn't of had if you hadn't picked him out from all the other dogs. He is probably chasing rabbits, wagging his tail and smiling down at your family. Love you all.
