Sprung into Summer Break

I have missed my blog.


Sometimes an unintended break comes along and life takes over.


So, here is a little bit of what life has been like since I last posted:

Shaelynn had surgery in April >>if you missed her story, you can read it here<< She has also been cleared from the chances of her tumor returning and the remaining health visits came to an end. She is released from further medical care. We have waited close to six years to hear that news. Praising God that she is healed.

Since then, Chad has begun a 6 month long journey to become a welder for the gas company. He should be certified come December. Our schedule changed dramatically, however, the sacrifices are worth it. I am so proud of him for taking this step to better the future for our family.

meanwhile....

Raegann turned one.

Jaymeson turned three.

 

 

And we threw a Pow Wow for Cowboys and Indians to celebrate.

 

the following weekend....

We rented a van and roadtripped to New Mexico to visit with family, Shaelynn's horse 'Swiper the Fox' and enjoy the wide open, fresh air!

The hardest part during my time away from the blog was saying goodbye to Penelope. I still cry, missing her. She was my first "baby" and Shaelynn's best bud.

A few days later, we moved into our new home! Bittersweet without our beloved fur baby. It has been quite a few years since our last place as a family, Shaelynn was an only child then.

With all of this in mind, Chad and I celebrated 7 years of marriage this past weekend. Funny, looking back at the day, how different we are now, but how much more love has grown. I am so grateful for this man and the life we share.

 

 

 

 

 No doubt, we are embarking new beginnings. I hope to return to my blog with so much more to share!

 

God is good. All the time!
